Solution

The correct option is A How long have you been married?
The reply here gives the number of years as the answer. Time (Since how long) is questioned using the words 'How long'. The syntax for an interrogative sentence is: Wh word + helping verb + subject + main verb ......? The tense of the question and answer should be the same. Hence, the tense of the question is the present perfect tense. Therefore, the correct option is: How long have you been married?
