Answer:

the complete subject would be, "the boy" simple subject is boy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ask yourself: WHO or WHAT found the penny on the ground? And since this sentence seems to be very short, the complete subject isn't much either. So you would just add-on "the." Sorry if this doesn't make sense. Explaining is a tough one for me. :'D
