Yes, the verb agrees with the subject in the given sentence.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

  • The sentence can be assumed that it is in past tense. The past tense for the word put is ‘put’ only.
  • The subject, be it singular or plural can be added next to this verb and it will continue to agree by being grammatically correct.
  • They refer to a plural subject. Balls refer to a plural object. The verb continues to be unchanged and it is grammatically correct and the verb agrees with the subject.
