A. was

B. were​

Answer:

Option A. Was

Almost 3/4 of the money in two banks was stolen last night by the same criminal.

Explanation:

  • In English grammar, a sentence is a combination of subject and predicate. While the subject is the doer, the predicate carries the verb which describes the action performed by the subject itself.
  • Thus, each clause needs a subject and a verb.
  • In some cases, the best verb to use is a simple "is" (Simple present tense- singular) or "was" (simple past tense-singular or some other form of the verb to be).
  • So, it can be concluded that in the simple past tense, the verb "be" is conjugated into either 'was' or 'were'.
  • This completely depends on the subject's number and person.
  • First-person singular and third-person singular subjects prefer "was", and all others prefer "were".
  • Since here the subject "Almost 3/4 of the money in two banks" is (Subject) singular, we will use "was" instead of "were".

Thus, the correct option to be chosen would be A. was.
