The correct answer is: C. would sort themselves out.

The sentence is in the simple future tense, so the correct verb form is “would sort themselves out.” The other options are incorrect because they are in the past tense or the present tense.

  • Option A: would sort themselves by is in the past tense. This is incorrect because the sentence is about something that will happen in the future.
  • Option B: would be sorted out is in the passive voice. This is incorrect because the sentence is about something that someone will do.
  • Option D: will sort themselves out is in the present tense. This is incorrect because the sentence is about something that will happen in the future.
  • Option E: No correction required is also incorrect because the sentence is in the simple future tense, so the correct verb form is “would sort themselves out.”
