B That backpack is Jesus's, and these bags are their's.
(C) That backpack is Jesus's, and these bags are theirs.
That backpack is Jesus' and these bags are their's.

Answer 1

The correct sentence is: That backpack is Jesus's, and these bags are theirs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct sentence is: That backpack is Jesus's, and these bags are theirs. In this sentence, the possessive form of 'Jesus' is formed by adding 's' after the apostrophe. The word 'theirs' is already possessive and does not require an apostrophe. So, the correct form is 'theirs' without an apostrophe.
