The correct answer(s) are: 1, 3, and 5.

Explanation:
In general, Gerund can act as a noun in the sentence. It can be formed by using the base form of verb + ing. For example: Paint, which can be used an a verb, is the base form + ing = Painting.

<span>1. The gerund is “painting.”
</span><span>3. The gerund is acting as a noun.
</span><span>5. The gerund could be replaced with an infinitive.</span>
