Answer

The second one, because "you're" is short for "you are".

When you say "hear", do you mean "see"? "Your" and "you're" have the exact same pronunciation, so you'll never hear a difference. That's why mixing them up is such a common mistake when writing, even among native speakers.

Answer

your = belonging to you
you're = short form of you are.

So the answer is 'you're'

Answer

2) Take it away when you're ready.
