A simple sentence would just be " the soup spilled on the floor."  it is an independent clause that expresses a complete thought.

anonymous · Answer

A compound sentence contains TWO independent clauses. This sentence obviously does not contain two independent clauses since you could not make two complete sentences with what is there.

anonymous · Answer

It's a complex sentence. I reread what you wrote and I have come to realize it's complex

anonymous · Answer

yes! a complex sentence is one that contains an independent and a dependent clause.
