A
was
💡 Explanation:
The subject 'She' is third-person singular, which requires the singular verb 'was'. 'Were' and 'are' are plural, 'had' indicates past possession not state of being. The compound subject structure 'She with her daughters' still takes singular agreement because 'with her daughters' is a prepositional phrase.
