Question

Find the errors in the underlined part:
Each of the students have submitted their assignments on time.

• A. Each of the students
• B. have submitted
• C. their assignments
• D. No error

Hint:

When the subject starts with "Each of", it is always singular and must take a singular verb, even if the object following "of" is plural.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

In the sentence "Each of the students have submitted their assignments on time.", the error lies in the verb agreement.
The phrase "each of the students" is singular, referring to one member of the group at a time, even though "students" is plural. Therefore, the singular verb "has" should be used instead of the plural "have" to maintain subject-verb agreement.
Corrected sentence:

• Each of the students has submitted their assignments on time.
