Answer:

The possessive forms of the given sentences are

"The hats of the men"  - The men’s hat

"The gun belonging to the hunter" - The hunter’s gun

"The nest built by the sparrows" - The sparrow’s nest

Explanation:

• The possessive form is the form where the sentence describes ownership of place, animal, or a thing.
• Possessive form is obtained by adding an apostrophe and ending with 's'.  
• If a sentence ends with plural form and contains‘s’ at end then add apostrophe after ‘s’.
• If a sentence ends with plural form and does not contains‘s’ at end then add apostrophe and ‘s’.
• When a possessive noun ends with ‘s’ then add a apostrophe after ‘s’ or we can also use apostrophe and ending with‘s’.
