  1. After the game, we went out for ice cream.
    Explanation: The comma is used after "game" to separate the introductory phrase from the main part of the sentence. This helps the reader understand that the action of going out for ice cream follows the event of the game.

  2. I brought my favorite book, a mystery novel, to read during lunch.
    Explanation: The commas around "a mystery novel" are used to set off additional information that describes "my favorite book." These commas give extra details without changing the main meaning of the sentence.

  3. Sarah, can you help me with this math problem?
    Explanation: The comma is used to separate the name "Sarah" from the rest of the sentence. This clarifies that you are directly addressing Sarah, making it clear who you are talking to.
