C
Correct answer
Explanation
After a preposition like 'of', we use the object pronoun 'us'. When a possessive meaning is intended (friends of ours = our friends), the possessive pronoun 'ours' is correct. 'We' is a subject pronoun, 'our' is a possessive adjective that needs a noun after it.
AI explanation
After the preposition of, English requires the independent possessive pronoun ours (meaning our friends), not the subject pronoun we, the object pronoun us, or the possessive adjective our, which must be followed by a noun. Ours stands alone and replaces our friends.
