Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The first option is the correct answer.

There is an error in the tense of the verb hence, "has finished" should be replaced with "finished" as the simple past tense is used for the past actions.

'Will have finished' which refers to finishing something in the future and 'had finished', which refers to the past perfect tense do not fit in contextually.

Therefore, the correct statement should be: " We finished our lunch half an hour ago. "
