Correct option is C)

Option C is correct. The present continuous is usually written as: am/is/are + present participle (base form of verb + -ing). In the given sentence, "play" is the present simple of the infinitive "to play" and the number is Plural. Thus, the present continuous tense of "to play" in this sentence is "are playing" and the resulting answer is: The boys are playing in the garden.

Option A is incorrect. "Is" can only be used when the noun is singular. However, in the given sentence, the noun "boys" is plural.

Option B is incorrect as it is in past continuous.

Option D is incorrect as it is in present perfect continuous.
