(A) Three out of every four automobile owners in the United States also own a bicycle.

==》因为有every在这里，所以后面宾语用单数。主谓的数必须一致，谓宾的不一定。

谢谢了

我想问问，

(A) Three out of every four automobile owners in the United States also own a bicycle.

翻译成中文得话，意思是说每四个人中间就有三个人有自行车?

如果改写下面这句话,语法是否依然正确?

Every three out of four automobile owners also own a bicycle.
