Here's the first:
1. How can I answer this without sounding facetious? [adj.]
What do you think the answer is to the 2nd, !S?

For #2, consider the implications of the two options:
1. if you are going to remove
2. if you could remove
#2 is the more tentative option; #1 sounds quite definite.
Now consider the form of the statement: "I would be grateful..." (i.e. it is a kind of request).
Does that help you to choose the answer?·
