Correct Answer: a black and a white shawl


Solution : The third option is the correct choice.

The phrase "a black and a white shawl" is not correct because this means that Suman has bought two shawls. It should be "a black and white shawl", which means a shawl in black and white colour.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Suman has bought a black and white shawl to wear with her new dress.
