Question

is there a sentence fragment? when the albuquerque international balloon fiesta began in 1972, only thirteen hot air balloons took to the sky. the festival drew more than five hundred ballooning teams in 2014. yes no

Explanation:

A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence lacking a subject, verb, or complete thought. The first sentence ("When the...sky") has a dependent clause ("When...1972") and an independent clause ("only thirteen...sky"). The second sentence ("The festival...2014") is a complete independent clause. Both are complete sentences, so no fragments.

Answer:

no
