Question
Which of the following sentences correctly uses "both...and"?
a. Both he is going to the conference and she.
b. He both is going to the conference and she.
c. Both he and she is going to the conference.
d. Both he and she are going to the conference.
Solution
The correct sentence is:

This sentence correctly uses "both...and" to show that two people (he and she) are doing the same action (going to the conference). The verb "are" agrees with the plural subject "he and she".
