标题: OG 101-Less

101. Even though the direct costs of malpractice disputes amounts to a sum lower than one percent of the $541 billion the nation spent on health care last year, doctors say fear of lawsuits plays a major role in health-care inflation.

(A) amounts to a sum lower

(B) amounts to less

(D) amounted to lower (D)

(E) amounted to a lower sum

答案没有问题。只是问，OG解释中，

In D, the adjective lower is erroneously used in place of the noun less as object of the preposition to. 是什么意思？谢谢

What it says is less is a noun and it is used as the object of the preposition to. While lower is an adjective, it can not be used to replace less as the object of to.
