I read a sentence in a passage: It is useful in that it lets him know of the kinds of goods in the shops.
(a) Is this okay(?): It is useful in [STRIKE]that it[/STRIKE] letting him know of the kinds of goods in the shops.
(b) How about this(?): It is useful to let him know of the kinds of goods in the shops.
(c) And this(?): It is useful [STRIKE]in[/STRIKE] that it lets him know of the kinds of goods in the shops.
This is no exam/assignment. It's only to check whether my understanding is okay! Thanks in advance.
Very interesting! After some research on the net, I understand that "in that" gives a different meaning actually. However, couldn't catch it full...sorry. Got it here: http://www.urch.com/forums/faqs/580-gmat-sc-because-vs.html
Please explain because it seems really very interesting to me.
