Question

Identify the correct sentence:

• A. Which of your two colleagues are here
• B. Which of your two colleagues is here
• C. Which of two colleagues are here
• D. Which of the two colleagues are here

Hint:

When “which of” or “one of” is used, the verb usually agrees with the singular subject following it.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding subject-verb agreement.
The subject “Which of your two colleagues” is singular because it refers to one person being selected or considered out of two.
Step 2: Explanation.
Hence, the verb must be singular (“is”) instead of plural (“are”).
Step 3: Conclusion.
The correct sentence is: “Which of your two colleagues is here.”
