Q010 To help Mom, either Tameka or her brothers sets the table and fill the glasses for their dinner. Change ... sets > set fill > fills their > her No change needed Because of the correlative conjunction either … or, the subject Tameka does not count; only the subject brothers does. Brothers needs a plural verb for agreement, and set does the job. Brothers, the subject that counts, is plural, and fill is a plural verb, so no error has occurred. With the correlative conjunctions either … or, you count the antecedent that is closer to the pronoun. The noun brothers is nearer their, and agreement reigns. Yikes! You must find the mistake!
