Question

Which pronoun correctly completes the sentence? The person with the most raffle tickets was __________ A. it B. her C. him D. she

Answer 1

Its both A & B because it refers to "the person" instead of actual giving them a gender.

Answer 2

D. she

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence is missing a subject complement, that is to say, a noun that describes or identifies the subject: "The person with the most raffle tickets". And since the subject complement refers to the subject of the sentence, it should be a noun or a subject pronoun like I, he, she, you, it, we, and they.

Therefore, option B and C can be easily discarded. Option A can be discarded as well because although it may work as a subject pronoun, the sentence talks about "a person" and not about a thing or an animal. Option D, then, it is the correct option because "she" is a subject pronoun.
