This problem can be solved through the concept of ratio and proportion such that the ratio between $0.43 and $100 should be the same as that of her insurance premium, x, and the cost of her new home.
$0.43 / $100 = x / $387,500
The value of x from the equation generated above is,
x = $1666.25
Thus, the answer is letter A.
