In sentence construction, a sentence must naturally have a subject and a
predicate. IN the sentences above, the most logical sentence where the verb
agrees with the subject is letter B with the sentence: Every soup and salad
cost less than five dollars. The subject here is the ‘soup and salad’ while the
predicate is ‘cost less than five dollars’. In cases like the sentence A: My
friend and her mother laughs at all my jokes. ‘friend and mother’ were supposed
to be the subjects however, the verb agreed to another subject at the end of
the sentence which is ‘all my jokes’.
