Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation : The subject of the sentence is "the scissors", which is plural, so the verb should also be in the plural form. The error was in the subject-verb agreement, where the singular verb " belongs " should be changed to the plural verb " belong " to match the plural noun "scissors".

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The scissors, which are on the table, belong to Radha."
