i have a question, about single/double quotations Options

[Jinny]

well i have a grammar test tomorrow.. so i guess i have to get help by tonight.
this might be reaalllyy easy but i don't listen at all in class. and yeaahh..

okay. pretend the sentence is: (i made these sentences up)

Mary said, "I love the song 'Hello'."
would the period go between the single+double quotation marks, would the period go after the double quotation marks, or would the period go inside the single quotation marks?

also if the sentence was:
"I love the song 'Hello'," Mary said.
would the comma go between the double+single quotation marks, inside the single quotation, or after the double quotation marks?

AGAIN. what if the sentence was:
"Did Mr. Smith say, 'Your reports are due tomorrow'?", asked Mary.
I'm so confused with that one. Would the comma go after the word "say"? would the question mark go inside the single quotation marks? or after the double quotation? and would the comma go after the double quotation marks?

i probably don't make any sense but please...?

I'm not 100% sure myself, so maybe take what I'm saying with a grain of salt.

I'm pretty sure the period (or any other ending mark) would go right before the double quotation in all cases.

Mary said, "I love the song 'Hello'."
Can be compared to:
Mary said, "I love the song 'Hello' with passion."

And I'm pretty sure this is how that last sentence is supposed to be:
"Did Mr. Smith say, 'your reports are due tomorrow.'?" asked Mary.

These, at least, all show up as correct on Microsoft Word.

Mary said, "I love the song 'Hello'."
That is correct—if you are using standard English, that is. In American English, it is preferable to use Mary said, "I love the song 'Hello.'". (There's a history as to why; it has to do with printing presses, actually.) I always go with standard English because, well, most of the world uses standard English.

"I love the song 'Hello'," Mary said.
Same issue as above—this is correct, but so is the comma inside the first quotation.

"Did Mr. Smith say, 'Your reports are due tomorrow'?", asked Mary.
Should be "Did Mr. Smith say, 'Your reports are due tomorrow'?" asked Mary.
