Where’s the book? ‘In’ or ‘On’ the table?” Question: “The book is _ the table

In

On

Answer

on

Explanation:
We use “on” when something is resting on the surface of something else.
So, if the book is lying on top of the table, we say:

“The book is on the table.”

“In” is used when something is inside an enclosed space (e.g., in a box, in a bag).

Examples:

The phone is on the table.

The pen is in the drawer.
