Question

Choose the possessive case of the noun given in the bracket:
_________ influence on the minds of the voters is undeniable. (Media)

• A. Medium
• B. Medium's
• C. Medias
• D. Media's

Answer 1

The correct option is D Media's

Option A is incorrect as the word medium is a singular noun and it is not in possessive case either.

Option B is incorrect as the word medium's is the possessive case of the singular noun-medium and not the plural noun-media.

Option C is incorrect as there is no apostrophe.

Note that a noun in possessive case always has an apostrophe- which is absent in both options A and C.

The possessive form of a plural noun which does not end in "s" is formed by suffixing apostrophe followed by the letter "s" to the noun.

Here, the noun "Media" is plural, which does not end in "s". Hence, its possessive case is: Media's. Option D is the correct answer.
