Know the Answer?

Liliana Terry · Answer 1

The correct answer is D. : Does someone ... know.

Someone needs a singular for of the verb, as it refers to a single person.

In A. the mistake is that "Few" refers to multiple people so it needs a plural form, in B. one (of those ...) requires singular and C. "several" requires plural

- and they all have the wrong number.
