Choose the correct Spanish translation for the following sentence. It was three o'clock.

For telling the time in Spanish, use the plural form of ser with hours other than one. Since the sentence is in the past and “three” is plural, use the imperfect plural form eran: “Eran las tres.” “Era las tres” uses the singular form, so it does not agree with the plural hour.
