Correct answer: on

Explanation: āœ… Correct Answer: B. on šŸ“š Explanation: When referring to the use of a telecommunications device, the preposition 'on' is used to indicate the medium being used. Phrases like 'on the phone' or 'on the radio' are standard English idioms. It describes a state of being engaged in a call or activity through that specific device.
