Question

The other coat is 1) yours2)ours3)you

Answer 1

The other coat is yours.

Answer 2

The correct answer is 1) yours.

When we say "yours," we are referring to something that belongs to the person or people we are speaking to. In this case, "the other coat is yours" means that the coat belongs to you or to the person or people we are addressing.

If we were to say "the other coat is ours," it would mean that the coat belongs to us, including the person or people we are speaking to.

On the other hand, if we were to say "the other coat is you," it would not make sense grammatically. "You" is a pronoun used to refer to the person or people being spoken to, not to indicate possession.

Therefore, the correct answer to the question is 1) yours.
