Answer:

Margie said that they lived in the year 2157.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first example is direct speech. So we can cross that off.

The second example used the wording choice of, "we" instead of "they." That wouldn't qualify as indirect speech either.

However, the last one used the correct wording and format.

Hope this helps!! <3
