Answer: Your

"Your" is a pronoun and used in sentences such as, "Your mother" or "Your schoolbooks." The word "you're" is an abbreviated form of the two words, "you are." This is a very common mistake people make and is always incorrect if used without the apostrophe and the letter "e" on the end.
