Sentence A is the only grammatically correct sentence in the group. It uses the correct verb tense (past tense), subject-verb agreement, and includes all necessary words to form a complete thought. Sentence B has the incorrect verb form (should be "was backing") and is missing a verb in the second half of the sentence. Sentence C is missing a subject for the verb "Backing" and is missing the verb "was" to make it a complete sentence. Sentence A is the correct sentence because it is grammatically correct and makes sense. Sentence B is incorrect because it is missing a helping verb (e.g. "was") and Sentence C is incorrect because it is missing an article (e.g. "was not very easy" sounds better than "not very easy").
