Answered by SparshaM

Answer:

The apostrophe (') together with an 's' is added to a noun to show possession, that is, to show that something belongs to some person or living thing.

Example: Children's books, here the reason is that 'children' is the plural form of 'child', and so we simply add an apostrophe + s at the end.

1. The house of Kapil got freshly painted.

2. The colour of that parrot is green.

3. Stuti is a friend of Mehek.

4. Pranay is a relative of the school librarian.

5. The garden owned by Saket is beautiful.

6. Sachin is the son of my friend.
