Correct Answer:  their
 


Solution : The correct answer is option 1.

Explanation:

When we want to indicate that we own something or someone, we use a possessive pronoun.

It signifies that it is unique to that person and no one else's. To avoid repetition, possessive pronouns can be used in place of noun phrases.

The possessive pronoun for the personal pronoun "they" would be "theirs."
The possessive pronoun "theirs" is used to denote ownership by a group of people.
