(1)They did a good job of explaining how it worked.
(2)They did a good job in explaining how it worked.
(3)They did a good job explaining how it worked.
Are all sentences correct?
Thanks for your help! |

All three are acceptable; but in order of frequency, I'd say (3) is the most common, followed by (1), with (2) being the least common in my opinion.
