The correct answer is A. 1

Explanation:

The sentence "Please hurry I can't wait for the bus much longer" is a run-on sentence because there is no punctuation between the first clause "Please hurry" and the second clause "I can't wait for the bus much longer". This is a punctuation error as each section expresses an idea and it is necessary to include a punctuation mark such as a comma to separate the clauses. According to this, to correct the error it is necessary to divide the sentence between the word "hurry" and the word "I" or in number 1.
