The answer is 'was.'

The president, as well as his brother, was a guest.

Subject-Verb Agreement

  • Subject-verb agreement refers to the rules that guide us in the correct placement of the verbs based on the number of the subject.
  • If the phrase 'as well as' is used in a sentence, the verb follows the first subject.
  • In the given sentence, 'president' is the first subject. Since it is singular, the sentence takes the singular verb 'was.'
