Question

Both the knight and his squire forgot to pack _____ food.

Which personal pronoun correctly completes the sentence if the knight and the squire share ownership of the food?
its
their
his
his or her

Answer 1

The answer is B - their. Both the knight and his squire are people, and if they ever have differences in gender, to make the sentence structure easy, 'their' is the appropriate word that will complete the sentence structure. They forgot to pack 'their' food.
