Answer:

095

Explanation:

You want the bearing from C to D, given that the bearing from D to C is 85° west of north.

Bearing

The bearing from C to D will be the opposite of the bearing from D to C.

Bearing is measured clockwise from north, so the bearing shown from D to C is -85°. Its opposite is found by adding 180°.

180° +(-85°) = 95°

The 3-digit bearing of D from C is 095.
