Answer 1

went is the error here
the correct statement is

Sheila did not go to the market.


went will not be used because did is already used there

Answer 2

The correct statement is Sheila did not go to the market.

When the auxiliary verb did is used in a sentence, the main verb of the sentence is used in its present original form.

The main verb in the given sentence is “go”.

In the given sentence, the past form of the verb ‘went’ is used.

However, as the auxiliary did is used, the main form of the verb, go should be used.
