Answer:

One way to correct the sentence is to say, “Each man and woman was given a prize.” The subject of the sentence, “each,” is singular, and takes the singular verb “was.” You can see this b removing the words “man and woman.” If you do that, the sentence reads “Each was given a prize.” Or you could substitute a word for the phrase “man and woman”; e.g., “Each contestant was given a prize.”

It would also be correct to say, “All the men and women were given prizes,” or “The men and women were given prizes,” or “The men and women were each given a prize
