Which sentence uses correct pronoun–antecedent agreement?
Each of the girls forgot their homework.
The teacher gave his students their test results.
Neither of the boys brought their lunch.

Answer explanation
Using "his or her" is like saying, "It could be a boy's phone, or it could be a girl's phone. We just don't know!" It's a way of being fair and correct at the same time.
