Answer: In this rewritten phrase, "plays'" is a plural possessive noun, and "classes'" is also a plural possessive noun.
Step-by-step explanation:
To rewrite the phrase "The plays of the classes" using possessive nouns, we need to determine the possessive form for both "plays" and "classes."
1. Possessive noun for "plays":
The word "plays" is already plural, so to make it possessive, we add an apostrophe after the "s." The possessive form of "plays" is "plays'."
2. Possessive noun for "classes":
The word "classes" is also plural. To make it possessive, we add an apostrophe after the final "s." The possessive form of "classes" is "classes'."
Now, let's rewrite the phrase with the possessive nouns and indicate whether they are singular or plural possessive nouns:
The plays' of the classes'
In this rewritten phrase, "plays'" is a plural possessive noun, and "classes'" is also a plural possessive noun.
