The sentence with the subject/verb agreement error is:
Driving as quickly as possible, each of the students pull into the parking lot.
To identify the subject/verb agreement error in this sentence, we need to check if the subject "each of the students" matches the verb "pull." In this case, "each of the students" is a singular noun phrase, so the verb should be in singular form as well. However, the verb "pull" is in plural form, which creates an agreement error.
To correct this sentence, we can adjust the verb to match the singular subject. The corrected sentence would be:
Driving as quickly as possible, each of the students pulls into the parking lot.
