Answer 1

Answer:

correct statement: one of my friend is an actor.

Answer 2

One of my friends is an actor.

• The subject of the sentence is "One friend" which is a singular subject. The helping verb " are" is used for a plural subject whereas, the helping or auxiliary verb "is" is used for a singular subject.
• When agreeing on whether to use is or are, look at whether the noun is plural or singular. If the noun is singular then one should use is. If it is plural or there is more than one noun then one should use are.
• Grammatical error is a word used in prescriptive grammar to interpret an instance of faulty, unusual, or contentious usage, such as a misplaced modifier or an improper verb tense. Also known as a usage error then one should compare grammatical error with correctness.

Hence, One of my friends is an actor.
