Answer:

The answer is B) 432

Explanation:

The 4 in 432 becomes a 3, because we can't subtract 6 from 3. The 3 becomes 13 and if we subtract 13 with 6... We get 7.

I got 0 with option B... With A I got 2 which is a remainder. With C I got 6.5 (repeating). And with D I got 7.77777777778.

Hence, B) 432 is the correct option.

Check screenshot of my work below.

(I forgot to include 48 on top of the division I just did. Don't mind that too much..)
