Hi!
Rewrite the sentence.
1. They will not announce the decision formally.
--> No formal....................................................
There are 3 answers.
a- No formal announcement of the decision will be made.
b- No formal decision will be announced.
c- No formal way will they announce the decision.
Which is correct, please?

I prefer choice "a" because it focuses on the formality of the announcement.
"b" focuses on the formality of the decision. Odd.
"c" is ... odd.

:-D

The adverb 'formally' modifies the verb 'announce'. We therefore need the adjective 'formal' to modify the noun 'announcement'. It's 'a'.
