                Ought is almost always followed by to and the infinitive form of a verb. The phrase ought to have the same meaning as should and is used in the same ways, but it is less common and somewhat more formal. The negative forms ought not and oughtn't are often used without a following.
The answer should be E.
                The answer should be E.

                ought should be followed by to.
