Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since we don't know the value of the missing number, we cannot perform the subtraction. Therefore, we must choose the answer that doesn't rely on the missing number. Option B is the only answer choice that fits this criteria, as it is a simple subtraction problem without any unknowns. Since the second number is not given, we cannot accurately subtract it from $872. However, option B is the only one that provides a plausible answer, as it is roughly half of the given value. Option A, C, and D do not make logical sense as they are either too high or too low of an answer.
