I attempted a subject-verb agreement exercise and encountered the following:
- The crowd was/were getting angrier by the moment until they eventually began to throw stones.
I think the answer is 'were' because of the presence of 'they' at the back of the sentence. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Thank you.
