Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. She said to me, “I know you want to help me but I can manage on my own.”

Given sentence: She told me that she knew I wanted to help her but she could manage on her own.

Comma and inverted commas are added and the conjunction 'that' is removed.

'told' is changed to 'said to.'

'wanted' is changed to 'want.'

'my' is changed to 'her'

So, the final sentence is:

She said to me, “I know you want to help me but I can manage on my own.”
