から and より used one after the other


I came across a statement in my Japanese book and wondered if someone could
help me out with it.

> ( )の中からより適当な方を選びなさい。

I reckon this translates to from the ( ) choose the most appropriate option.

But why is からより used? Shouldn’t it be one or the other as they both have the
same meaning?




No, they do not. Not in this context. から means from, and より means more, which
is an adverb modifying 適当な.

[Article 4 of the jisho page for
より](https://jisho.org/search/%E3%82%88%E3%82%8A) has an example sentence:

> **より** いい物が見つからないので、今ある物で我慢しよう
