My telephone number/mine is this
Hi. Could we use the possessive pronouns "mine" and "yours" in connection with something like a telephone number correct? Thank you for your help in advance.
eg,
A: My telephone is this. (pointing at it in the list)
B: Oh, it that right. Mine is this, one right below yours. (also pointing at his in the list)
