Question

Select the incorrect verb and type it correctly.

There is 254 counties in Texas, making it the state with the highest number of counties. Georgia has the second highest number with 159 counties.

Answer 1

The incorrect verb in the sentence is 'is' which should be changed to 'are' to correctly match the plural subject '254 counties'.

Step-by-step explanation:

The incorrect verb in the sentence provided is 'is' when it should be 'are'. The corrected sentence would read: 'There are 254 counties in Texas, making it the state with the highest number of counties.

Georgia has the second highest number with 159 counties.' The number of counties is plural, therefore the plural form of the verb 'to be' is required for proper subject-verb agreement.
