Use the question words in parentheses to form a question: Roger's grandfather had a small farm in the county (whose)
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The question we can form using the information in the sentence and the word in parentheses is:

Whose grandfather had a small farm in the county?

Explanation:

<u>"Whose" is a pronoun used to indicate possession, be it in a declarative sentence or in an interrogative one. If I wish to know, for instance, who the owner of a car parked in front of my house is, I can ask: Whose car is this?</u>

<u>Since we are supposed to use "whose" to ask a question as well as the information in the given sentence, we need to find a possession relationship to ask about.</u> Of course, the farm has an owner - the grandfather. But the way the sentence is structure does not allow us to ask about him while using "whose". However, the grandfather "belongs", so to speak, to Roger, and the structure allows us to use "whose" to ask about him. Therefore, the question we can form is:

Whose grandfather had a small farm in the county?
