Their _____ house is by the side of the road.
A
father-in-law's
B
father's-in-law
C
fathers-in-law
D
father-in-laws
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option A

To form the possessive of a compound noun like "father-in-law," the apostrophe and "s" are added to the last word ("law"), not to "father." A. father-in-law's is correct because it shows possession: Their father-in-law's house is by the side of the road.
