Which of the following sentences demonstrates proper subject-verb agreement?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
The boy or the girls come to school late
Rationale:
🟩 This sentence follows proper subject-verb agreement for a compound subject joined by “or.”
🟩 When subjects are joined by "or," the verb agrees with the subject closest to it.
🟩 In this case, “girls” is plural and comes immediately before the verb “come,” which is also in plural form—making the agreement grammatically correct.
🟩 The sentence also maintains clear structure and consistent verb usage, aligning with standard English grammar rules.
