Which sentence demonstrates correct subject-verb agreement? A. The nanny, along with two children, walk to the park. B. One of the members of the band have a black motorcycle. C. The audience wait eagerly for the symphony to begin. D. Three-fourths of the students were late for the exam.

Answer 1

The sentence that demonstrates correct subject-verb agreement is: D. Three-fourths of the students were late for the exam.

In this sentence, "three-fourths" is treated as a plural subject, correctly matched with the plural verb "were."

The other sentences have incorrect subject-verb agreement:

• A: "The nanny... walk" should be "The nanny... walks."
• B: "One of the members... have" should be "One of the members... has."
• C: "The audience wait" should be "The audience waits."
