English Conditional Sentences

Choose the correct sentence.

A If he had saved money earlier, he wouldn't be in debt now.

B If he saved money earlier, he wouldn't be in debt now.

C If he had saved money earlier, he wouldn't have been in debt now.

D If he has saved money earlier, he wouldn't be in debt now.

This is a past condition ("had saved") leading to a present result ("wouldn't be"), so it follows the mixed conditional pattern correctly.

Ask whether the result is happening right now (present) or already finished (past) before choosing the verb form.
