Answer 2

To choose the correct pronoun in this sentence, we need to determine the subject to which the pronoun refers. In the given sentence, the subject is "dress."

The correct pronoun to use would be "hers" or "mine" because both pronouns refer to the possessive form of the subject "dress."

Let's evaluate each option:

A) hers/mine: This option is correct because "hers" refers to the dress belonging to a female, and "mine" refers to the dress belonging to the speaker.

B) her/my: This option is incorrect because "her" refers to the dress belonging to a female, but "my" refers to something belonging to the speaker, not the dress.

C) his/me: This option is incorrect because "his" refers to something belonging to a male, not the dress. Similarly, "me" is the object form of the pronoun and does not indicate possession.

D) their/our: This option is incorrect because "their" refers to something belonging to multiple people, and "our" refers to something belonging to a group that includes the speaker, not the dress.

E) her/mine: This option is correct because "her" refers to the dress belonging to a female, and "mine" refers to the dress belonging to the speaker.

Therefore, the correct pronoun choice is A) hers/mine or E) her/mine. Both options correctly indicate possession of the dress.
