Instructions:

> Circle the past tense verb that correctly completes the sentence.

We are given a list of 20 sentences. For each, three forms of a verb are provided (one correct past tense form and two others — sometimes regular -ed forms or other irregular forms). We need to circle the correct past tense form that fits the sentence.

15. You ______ the answer.
Options: know, known, know
→ Wait — the options are: know, known, know? That seems like a typo. But likely it's:
→ "know", "knew", "known"?
Actually, looking at the image: it says: know, known, know — probably a mistake.
But based on context:
You ______ the answer.
→ Needs past tense. Correct form is knew.
But "knew" isn't listed. Only "know", "known", "know" — all wrong.
Wait — let’s double-check:
It says: know, known, know — that can’t be right.
But perhaps it's a typo and should be: know, knew, known?
But as written, none are correct.
However, likely the intended answer is knew, but it's missing.
Alternatively, maybe it's meant to be:
"You ______ the answer." → "You knew the answer."
So if the options are: know, knew, known, then knew is correct.
But since it shows: know, known, know, that’s confusing.
Let’s assume a typo — perhaps it's supposed to be:
know, knew, known → then knew is correct.
But based on what’s written: know, known, know — no "knew".
So maybe the correct option is known? No — "known" is past participle.
This is ambiguous.
But in context: "You ______ the answer."
→ "You knew the answer." → knew is required.
So unless the worksheet has a typo, this one might be flawed.
But perhaps the second "know" is meant to be "knew"?
Given the pattern, I suspect the intended answer is knew, but it's not listed.
However, looking again at the original image text:
> 15. You ______ the answer.
> know known know
→ That’s clearly a mistake. Likely, it should be: know, knew, known
Then knew is correct.
But since only "known" is different, and "known" is not correct here, we must assume it's a typo.
So knew is the correct past tense, but not listed.
→ Perhaps the intended answer is known? No — "You known" is grammatically incorrect.
So best guess: knew is missing — but if forced to choose from given, none are correct.
But wait — perhaps the options are:
know, knew, known — and in the image, it's misprinted.
Since the user said "uploaded an image", and we can't see it, but based on typical worksheets, likely the options are:
know, knew, known → then knew is correct.
So I’ll assume that’s the case.
✔ Answer: knew (assuming typo in options)
