please mark me brainliest.

Answer 2

"The teacher, as well as the students, were praised​." This will be the complete sentence.

• Here, we have to fill in the given blank with the correct form of the given words.
• 'Was' is the singular verb form of 'be' in the first and third person.
• 'Were' is the second person plural form of the base verb 'be.'
• Since both the teacher and the students are referred to here since the plural form of the verb will be used here.
• Hence, 'was' will be incorrect since it is in the singular form.
• So, the correct word to fill in the blank with will be 'were'.
• Hence, the complete sentence will be, "The teacher, as well as the students, were praised​."
