The closest number is B. 259
To find the answer to this question, you need to multiply 32.9 by 7.5. The option that the product of those two numbers is closest to, is the answer.
= 32.9 x 7.5
= 246.75
= 247 rounded off
This number is closest to 259 as the difference between them is only:
= 259 - 247
= 12
The other options are wrong because:
= 247 - 232
= 15
= 247 - 220
= 27
= 265 - 247
= 18
The closest number is therefore 259.
