His painting was declared the best ______ all the entries.

  1. A
    between
  2. B
    among
  3. C
    from
  4. D
    through

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

* Among is used when referring to a choice, distribution, or comparison involving more than two persons, things, or entities collectively ("all the entries").
Between is typically used for comparing or distinguishing two distinct entities.

From and through do not fit contextually to indicate selection out of a collective group.

Hence, among is the correct preposition.
