What command is used in Linux to uninstall the application 'nano'?

apt-get remove
apt-get uninstall
nano uninstall
linux remove

The correct answer is: apt-get remove

The command 'apt-get remove' is used to uninstall an application in Linux. This is because apt-get is a package management tool in Linux and 'remove' is the specific command used to uninstall a package. Option B, 'apt-get uninstall', is incorrect because 'uninstall' is not a recognized command. Similarly, option C, 'nano uninstall', is incorrect because 'nano' is the name of the application and not a command. Option D, 'linux remove', is incorrect because there is no specific command to uninstall applications in Linux labeled as 'linux remove'. Therefore, option A is the correct command to use when uninstalling the application 'nano' in Linux.
