(1 pt) in which sentence does the hyphen correctly divide a word? a. the man in the dark suit is our new go- vernor. b. the man in the dark suit is our new gover- nor. c. the man in the dark suit is our new gove- rnor.

When you need to divide a word, you have to divide it where the syllables break. In governor, there are 3 syllables gov - er - nor.

So, the correct answer is B. The man in the dark suit is our new gover - nor. 

A and C are not broke in proper places.

Hope this helps.

c is the answer because first she would blush to make the reader wonder why which they find out in the next line.
