Hi,



Just the former.

Yours is already possessive, as your is the possessive form of the pronoun you, so you don't need an apostrophe to make it possessive.

examples in sentences:

The coat rack is full, so just put yours on the chair next to it.

The Christmas presents are under the tree. Yours is the one in the silver wrapping.

No, nothing quite so crucial as that. I'm technically off for the day, but there is no true rest for the wicked, and I still get calls at home on off days.
