I mistakenly entered that I have two businesses, now I can't delete one.How can I delete this "other business"?

At one point it asked if my husband or I have another business, I said yes then couldn't say NO. Now it is asking about the other business, which I've been answering as if it is the business I already detailed. How can I delete this "other business" which doesn't exist?

To delete a non-existent business:

• With your return open, search for this exact phrase: business (schedule c) (include the parentheses) and then click the "Jump to" link in the search results.
• Answer Yes when asked if you had (or want to work on) business income and expenses for 2016. 
• That's right – you'll need to answer Yes, even though it doesn't make sense.
• If you're being forced to upgrade to Home & Business or Self-Employed, contact us for further assistance.
• When you get to the Business info or Business Summary screen, click Delete next to the non-existent business.
• Answer Yes to confirm the removal of all business-related forms.

Help! I don't know how to get rid of a business labeled "Consulting" when I use the one--and always have--that is Communications. Consulting appeared this year, probably because I entered the wrong info
