For this question, the choices are:
<span>1) Each
2) Both
3) Either
4) Neither
</span>
And the answer is both because it is the only plural pronoun that refers to one or more nouns in the sentence, hence the use of "were". Each, either and neither refer to only one of the other and thus would use "was" instead of "were" to refer to a singular noun.

Answer:
A supporter of the republic who believes strongly in a government guided by the votes of senators. While Brutus loves Caesar as a friend, he opposes the ascension of any single man to the position of dictator, and he fears that Caesar aspires to such power. Brutus’s inflexible sense of honor makes it easy for Caesar’s enemies to manipulate him into believing that Caesar must die in order to preserve the republic. While the other conspirators act out of envy and rivalry, only Brutus truly believes that Caesar’s death will benefit Rome. Unlike Caesar, Brutus is able to separate completely his public life from his private life; by giving priority to matters of state, he epitomizes Roman virtue. Torn between his loyalty to Caesar and his allegiance to the state, Brutus becomes the tragic hero of the play.
