Each of Preston Burke's trampoline (have) (has) its own basketball hoop attached, so that you can practice dunking.

Question

just a easy grammar question lol

Answer 1

In this subject verb agreement, you need to identify the application of the golden rule of grammar.

 

THE GOLDEN RULES OF GRAMMAR IDENTIFIED:

 

A) Consider all Distributive Pronouns as singular subjects. For example, each, each one, none, none of them, anybody, somebody, someone, anyone, any, etc.

 

B) A singular subject goes with a singular verb.

 

C)  The singular verb is has, and the plural have.

 

For example, each of them drinks / drink coffee.

Answer 2

Each of Preston Burke's trampolines has its own basketball hoop.

 

Note: The subject is EACH (which is a singular word, therefore trampolines must be plural--EACH ONE has...)
