Hi,

I'm pretty new to GMAT so please forgive me if this question is too elementary. The below sentence is from the OG 2019 on the subject of agreement.

"Six dollars is a high price for that"

I'm of the opinion that "Six dollars" is the subject but I can't wrap my around why the verb is taking a singular verb-number. I appreciate that it won't make sense to replace the verb with "are" but I cannot articulate why the subject is plural while the verb is singular.

Welp! :cry-river:

Dollars can be put under 2 cases -

When used as an amount of money, it requires a singular verb
Five dollars is a lot of money.

But when referring to the dollars themselves, a plural verb is required.
Dollars are often used instead of rubles in Russia.
