Correct Answer: (3)


Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

This option provides the correct subject-verb agreement. "There" is used to talk about a specific location and "their" indicates ownership. Since we are talking about multiple countries, we need to use the plural form "countries".

Therefore, the correct sentence is: How many countries are there in Europe?
