Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The correct pronoun to use in this sentence is "his" because it refers to a singular noun (membership card) and Ernesto and Jayden are both singular nouns. Therefore, the pronoun must agree in singular form. "Their" and "they're" are both incorrect because they refer to a plural noun.
