Which sentence does not contain any errors? A. Two salesladies worked in the men's department. B. Two salesladies' worked in the men's department. C. Two salesladie's worked in the mens department. D. Two salesladies worked in the mens' department.

Ok, so, is "salesladies" possessive?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

Right, so it's not B or C. Now, that leaves A and D. Which do you think it is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im stuck between A and D because its the mens' department and men is plural so would I put an apostrophe before or after the s

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

(A) (two woman non-possessive, possessive department)

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

It's A :) It should be men's
