A.

will

B.

has

C.

were

D.

are

Correct option is B


The correct option to fill in the blank is (b) has.
Correct sentence:
Each of the students has completed their assignments.
Explanation:
Although "students" is plural, the subject "Each of the students" is considered singular. Hence, we use the singular verb “has”.
Grammatical Rule Used:
When a sentence starts with “Each of”, it is treated as a singular subject and must take a singular verb.
Hindi Explanation:
"Each of the students" एकवचन मानी जाती है, इसलिए "has" (एकवचन क्रिया) का प्रयोग होगा।
Meanings of all other options:
· Will: Future auxiliary, needs clarity on subject.
Hindi: होगा ❌
· Has: Present perfect singular auxiliary.
Hindi: कर चुका है ✅
· Were: Past plural auxiliary.
Hindi: थे ❌
· Are: Present plural auxiliary.
Hindi: हैं ❌
