Awork

Bworks

Cworking

Dhas work

Answer:

B. works

Read Explanation:

The sentence "The student complained, 'Neither of these computers works properly.'" is grammatically accurate.

### Explanation:

- "Neither" is treated as singular, so it takes the singular verb "works" (not "work").

- "These computers" refers to multiple computers, but the use of "neither" indicates that we're focusing on the singular idea of each individual computer not working properly. Hence, the verb must agree with the singular subject "neither."

So, the correct form is "works" because of the singular subject "neither."
