Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The word "their" is a possessive pronoun, and it suggests that something belonging to our grandpa and grandma is missing. However, it seems that we want to convey that we found our grandpa and grandma missing from their house. In this case, we should use "them" instead of "their" to correctly refer to our grandpa and grandma.
So, the correct sentence should be: "I visited my grandpa and grandma's house and found them missing."
