The answer is c: Each of these women runs their own business. The correct use for pronoum-antecedent agreement in this sentence is putting the possessive adjective her, because each of + women has a singular verb and her is the possessive for she. Each of these women runs her own business. Another sentence would be different: Each of these people has their own business.
