Fix the Sentence: Pick the correct answer that shows all the proper edits. Original Sentence: "i like pizza but my brother likes tacos."

• "I like pizza, but my brother likes tacos."

• "I like pizza, but, my brother likes tacos."

• "i like pizza but, my brother likes tacos."

Answer explanation

The correct choice is "I like pizza, but my brother likes tacos." It capitalizes the first letter 'I' and correctly places a comma before 'but' to separate the two independent clauses.
