Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sentence is a fragment as it lacks a subject. A possible correction would be "They are programmed to work together on a group task." The sentence is a fragment because it does not contain a subject or a verb, and it does not express a complete thought. It seems to be missing some context. A possible revision could be "These machines are programmed to work together on a group task."
