Hello guys
I took an English exam yesterday and there was a question about relative clause. We were supposed to combine 2 sentences by using "which". Here are them: there are some rides in amusement park. You have a lot of fun on them. A classmate of mine said the answer is : there are some rides in amusement park, on which you have a lot of fun. I can't figure out why we use "on" before which. I would be grateful if you could help me☺

@Elham68,
When combining those sentences using "which", the preposition with the verb (or verb phrase) in the second sentence is required.


There are some rides in the amusement park. You have a lot of fun on them.

There are some rides in the amusement park, on which you have a lot of fun.


There are some toys in the box. It is fun to play with them.

There are some toys in the box, with which it is fun to play.


I have been given a box of tools. I hope to find a use for them.
