Test Tip: One way to tell the difference
between a possessive noun and a plural noun
ending in –s is to ask a question beginning
with whose.
For example, if you see the phrase
Presidents’ pets, ask “Whose pets?” The
answer is the Presidents’. If you get an
answer to a question starting with whose,
the word is possessive and requires an
apostrophe.
