Option 1: girl has
Option 2: made this

Correct Answer: An eight years old
Solution : The correct choice is the third option .
When using as an adjective, it is correct to use year-old . Thus, to make the sentence grammatically accurate, eight years old should be replaced with eight-year-old because it functions as an adjective in this sentence.
