I have four _________ of shoes.

  1. pair

  2. pairs

  3. paired

  4. paires
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The sentence requires the plural form because of 'four,' indicating multiple sets. 'Pairs' is the correct plural of 'pair.' 'Pair' is singular, while 'paired' is a past tense verb or adjective, and 'paires' is misspelled. When counting more than one, we always use the plural form.
