It's an illogical question, because inside the brackets are three completely different words. They are homophones, it's true, but they have different meanings and are therefore not a single word. So, in fact, there is only one way to spell the word 'to', and the same for the other words.

You could choose any one of them...provided the question was spoken and not written! In such a situation, the listener would be aware only of the common sound and not of which spelling option you'd chosen to say.

Written, it is just as Smorodina has already said.

well but you can spell "too" "as well" or "also"
I'm thankful that '2' wasn't an option.
I would pick the word two, to match up with the 3 at the beginning of the sentence; but smorodina is logically right.
