Question

Fill in the blank with the correct possessive noun:
________ paintings, displayed in the exhibition, received a lot of appreciation from the public.

• A. Mary
• B. Mary's
• C. Marys'
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Mary's

The possessive case of a singular noun is formed by adding an apostrophe at the end of the noun followed by the letter "s". The word given in the bracket i.e Mary is a singular noun. The possessive form of the noun "Mary" would be: Mary's'. Hence the correct answer is option B.

Options A and C are incorrect as they do not follow the possessive sign pattern mentioned above i.e apostrophe followed by letter "s".
