The correct sequence is___
Answer:
:
When 'as well as' joins a singular subject to a plural subject, the verb remains singular. Hence 'has' is correct in the first sentence. "Will” being the present form go with it similarly in sentence B and E.
The connectives 'along with' and 'with' take a singular verb.
Hence 'was' and 'has' are correct. In sentence "C” the verb 'are' goes with 'enterprises' which is plural.
Hence BBABA is the right Option.
