Thanks in advance

I think I would do this: The question word ' which ' introduces questions to identify one or more people or things from within a limited group. Compare a dictionary definition: An interrogative pronoun, used both substantively and adjectively, and in direct and indirect questions, to ask for, or refer to, an individual person or thing among several of a class
