Question

which sentence is correct- the jury are of ten persons or the jury is of ten persons​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In this sentence we would be understanding the usage of subject-verb concord. In this sentence, a third person has been addressed and the sentence is in perfect tense.

Has is used alongside the pronouns He / She / It and Who and singular nouns (In third person). It is used in case of perfect tense. It is the correct answer.

Have been is used for first- and second-person singular and all plural uses. It is the wrong option.

Is and are are only used for simple tenses and the given sentence is in perfect tense. Thus, these are wrong.
