Myles Nichols · Answer 1

I believe it's B. Likelier

Because the word is 'likely' ending in a y, you remove the vowl 'y' and make it 'likelier'

Makhi Patterson · Answer 2

Technically none of the above, as none of the words are vowels.

C may be the best answer though, depending on the context; if it's a command to "be careful," for example.
