Most /Much Concord
V Where most appears, the verb will be either singular or plural, depending on whether the referent is a countable or uncountable noun, e.g.
Most of the boys are...
Most of the time (uncountable) is. Wherever much is used. the verb of the clause must be singular, e.g. Much of the water has (not have) been spilled

Myschool please correct this
Whenever we have Most of or Much of + uncountable noun (such as support), we use singular nouns
The answer is has yielded
C is correct 

Rules of concord says that "most of + uncountable noun + singular verb
C is the correct answer

Rule of proximity
states is a plural subject that's why they use the plural verb "have"

the answer should be "has yielded" because according to the rule of concord, yiu are to consider the subject "support" buh the appositive phrase "by other states" which means it would carry a singular verb not singular

Yes cos have is prular to states, and yielded is de pastens of yield cos sentence is talkn about de past effort dat de states have made in support
