Previous explanation: A simple subject refers only to the noun or pronoun that performs the action or is being described in a sentence, thus it does not include any of the modifiers that describe or gives information about the subject.

1)None of the teachers stay at school past 5:30 P.M.

Simple subject: teachers

When the noun that follows "none of" is in the plural, then the verb must be in the plural too, so "stay" is the correct answer. And the simple subject is teachers because it is the most basic word of the subject, and "None of the" are the modifiers of teachers.

2)Every one of the girls needs to be at practice today.

Simple subject: girls.

Every is always followed by a singular noun, the verb must be singular too.

3) Cake and coffee make an excellent ending to a meal.

Simple subject: cake and coffee

Cake and coffee are two nouns so the verb that agrees with them is a plural noun.

4) Each of the men is going to compete in the race.

Simple subject: men

Each of always takes a singular verb.

5)The boy has many types of snakes in his back yard.

Simple subject: boy

The boy is the third person singular, thus the verb "has" is the correct one.

6) Either of the schools wins/win the pennant every year.

Simple subject: schools

When either of is followed by a plural noun or pronoun it can a singular verb or a singular verb. A plural verb is more informal. So, it depends on the speaker.
