My shoes were worn out so I had to buy a new one.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. new ones.
- As "shoes" is used in the plural form we need to use a pronoun for it in plural form as well.
- Hence we need to use "ones" at the place of "one".
- Article A or AN is not used before a plural noun.
- The chosen option follows these rules correctly hence, it will be correct.
The correct sentence will be-
My shoes were worn out so I had to buy new ones.
