Which sentence correctly uses the contraction ‘they’re’ rather than the possessive ‘their’?

AThere going to the party.
BTheir going to the party.
CTheyre going to the party.
DThey're going to the party.

Explanation

‘They’re’ is a contraction meaning ‘they are,’ while ‘their’ is a possessive pronoun showing ownership, and ‘there’ refers to a place. Since this sentence means ‘they are going,’ the contraction ‘they’re’ is correct, and using the possessive ‘their’ instead would incorrectly suggest something belonging to them, without a verb to complete the sentence.
