In this context, "whose" works fine, on the basis that almost no other options work at all outside of completely rewriting the question.

I personally would just switch it out for "with" instead; it does slightly reframe the phrase but doesn't change the question itself.

outside of completely rewriting the question.

Doesn't require much rewriting tbh
