Sure, let's analyze the sentences one by one: 1. **I remember Grandmother when I smell freshly baked bread with butter.** - The prepositional phrase is "with butter," modifying "baked bread." - It is adjectival, answering the question "What kind of baked bread?" 2. **Many teenagers work part-time during high school.** - There is no prepositional phrase in this sentence to underline and circle. 3. **The aroma of my grandmother's baking was often strong.** - The prepositional phrase is "of my grandmother's baking," modifying "aroma." - It is adjectival, answering the question "What kind of aroma?" 4. **When I was young, Grandmother let me help make soft rolls with butter.** - The prepositional phrase is "with butter," modifying "soft rolls." - It is adjectival, answering the question "What kind of rolls?" 5. **Some work at fast food restaurants, while others work outdoors.** - The prepositional phrase "at fast food restaurants" modifies "work." - It is adverbial, answering the question "Where do some work?" In summary, the prepositional phrases in these sentences can be either adjectival or adverbial, depending on whether they modify a noun or a verb. It's important to identify the relationship between the prepositional phrase and the word it modifies to determine its function in the sentence.
