Solution
The correct option is D Sunday and Saturday's breakfast menu includes eggs.
To form the possessive case of two nouns whose joint possession is indicated, apostrophe followed by the letter "s" is to be suffixed to the second noun. In this case, the breakfast menu of both Sunday and Saturday includes eggs. So, we suffix apostrophe followed by letter "s" to the second noun only i.e Saturday. Option d is the correct answer. Options a and c are incorrect because the apostrophe followed by letter "s" is suffixed to Sunday as well. Option b is incorrect as no apostrophe is suffixed to Saturday.
