• A. Performed by one person
• B. Performed by many people

2. Many _____ books are popular among adults these days.

• A. Children's
• B. Childrens's
• C. Childrens'
• D. Childrens

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Children's.' In this context, 'Children's' is the correct possessive form to indicate that the books belong to or are associated with children. Choice B ('Childrens's') is incorrect due to the unnecessary extra 's' after the apostrophe. Choice C ('Childrens'') is wrong as it is missing the apostrophe to show possession. Choice D ('Childrens') is incorrect as it is missing the apostrophe and does not form the possessive form correctly.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Choice C, 'A multitude of clients' complaints filled the comment box,' is the correct answer. 'Clients'' is the plural possessive form to indicate that the complaints belong to the clients. In Choice A, 'baby's' is correctly punctuated to show the bibs belong to the baby. Choice B, 'Sarah's and Claire's business was thriving in its new location,' incorrectly uses an apostrophe before 'business,' making it possessive twice. Choice D, 'A busy worker's best tool is a good plan,' correctly shows possession of the best tool by the busy worker.
