The correct choice is the option that states 'they decided to collaborate' because it removes all redundant elements ('together' and 'in cooperation') while maintaining the grammatical integrity of the sentence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the redundant words in the underlined portion.
The words 'collaborate,' 'together,' and 'in cooperation' all share the same meaning, which is working collectively.
Eliminating redundancy requires keeping only one of these terms to state the idea clearly without repetition.
2
Evaluate the choices to find the most concise version that is grammatically correct.
The option containing 'they decided to collaborate' removes the repetitive elements while keeping the main independent clause intact.
This ensures the sentence is both grammatically complete and free of redundant phrasing.
