The answer is: Place quotation marks around "Managing Debt."

Explanation for each option:

  1. Place quotation marks around "Managing Debt."

    • This is the correct answer. In English, the titles of chapters, articles, short stories, essays, and other shorter works are typically placed in quotation marks. Therefore, "Managing Debt" should be in quotation marks to indicate that it is a chapter title.
  2. Place quotation marks around "in the book."

    • This is incorrect. The phrase "in the book" is not a title or a specific work; it is simply a part of the sentence that provides context. There is no need to place it in quotation marks.
  3. Place quotation marks around "Suzie Ormond."

    • This is incorrect. Suzie Ormond is the name of the author, and names of people are not placed in quotation marks. They are proper nouns and should be capitalized but not enclosed in quotation marks.
  4. Place quotation marks around "Road to Wealth."

    • This is incorrect. The title of a book should be italicized or underlined, not placed in quotation marks. In this context, "Road to Wealth" should be italicized to indicate that it is the title of a book.

By placing quotation marks around "Managing Debt," the sentence correctly follows the conventions of English grammar and punctuation for titles of shorter works.
