Solution

The correct option is C yours
NOTE: The given sentence requires a possessive pronoun.
Option A - 'Mine' is used for 'Me'. As the sentence compares 'my' with 'you', we can't use 'mine'. Thus option A is incorrect.
Option B - 'You're' is not a possessive pronoun. Thus option B is incorrect.
Option D - 'Their' is not a possessive pronoun. Thus option D is incorrect.
Option C - 'Yours' shows the possession of the second person's belongings. Thus option C is the correct answer.
'My shoes are cheap, but yours are expensive.'
