What are the 3 subject verb disagreements

Allegedly recovered from the legendary King Solomon’s Mine, the uncut, rough stone was acquired in 1544 by the scandalous DeLuca family. Gifted as part of a dowry in 1612, the fate of the diamond, along with several other high profile gems, were unknown after the Franco-Spanish war of 1635, before it mysteriously reappeared over three centuries later.

Sold last year to the Moretti Brothers jeweller for just over £22million, neither time nor conflict have dimmed its brilliance. Indeed, the twin eighty-year-old brothers suggests that the value of the now cut and polished 90 carat diamond has already increased by at least 50%. It will be on display for four weeks only.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"the fate of the diamond, along with several other high profile gems, were unknown" - subject-verb disagreement between "fate" (singular) and "were" (plural)

"the twin eighty-year-old brothers suggests" - subject-verb disagreement between "brothers" (plural) and "suggests" (singular)

"It will be on display for four weeks only." - subject-verb disagreement between "It" (singular) and "will be" (plural)
