Correct Answer: It is somebody's else.

 


Solution : The correct answer is -- It is somebody's else.

Explanation:

  •  Use'somebody else's' instead of'somebody's else' - Because we know that when 'else' is used with anybody/nobody/etc, an apostrophe is utilised.
  • - Here are several examples:
  • - I can trust your words, not someone else's.
  • - I will follow your directions and no one else's.
  • As a result, the correct statement is:  Jack thinks this is not his pen it is somebody else's.
