Which of the following uses the colon correctly? * 1 point
There is only one thing that matters in life: family.
I came home at three: fifteen in the afternoon.
Please bring: some soap, chips, and soda.
I hate shopping: it's annoying and time consuming.

The first statement.

Explanation:

The second statement is incorrect because colons are not used when writing the time in word form. It is improper.

The third one is incorrect because, while it is a list, it is not in the right spot. Nor is the list in the best format for a colon.

The last one requires a semicolon, not a colon. Semicolons connect separate phrases without starting a new sentence.

honestly you should not write it the word placement is not right and this does not sound right so i think you should write it this way. the life lessons i refused to learn, taught me the hard way this sounds way better you should try it! hope this is very !
