Detailed Solution

Concept: In option 1 the sentence is going to be completed by using haven’t eaten as an appropriate word of the verb. But the verbs that may be used here should be the first form. Thus, this option is incorrect.
Option 2: It is that the kind of the verb shows the past is imperfect. Here, the primary word of the verb together with the second word of the helping verb are going to be used. Thus, this option is incorrect, because the verb is in the ‘ing’ form.
Option 3: The ‘didn’t eat’ is the most suitable form of the verb. This kind of the verb also signifies that a task is being done and isn't during a continuous process. Also, the verb is in the first form and therefore the helping verb is in the second form. Thus, option 3 will be the correct answer.
Option 4, the verb is in the first form but the helping verb is also in the first form. This shows a part of the sentence is within the tense and part is within the present. Thus, this option is incorrect.
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
