Explanation

First calculate 280% of 1525: (280/100) × 1525 = 2.8 × 1525 = 4270. Then divide by 16.96: 4270 ÷ 16.96 ≈ 4270 ÷ 17 = 251.76. Among the options, 260 is the closest approximate value. More precisely: 4270 ÷ 16.96 ≈ 251.7, which rounds to approximately 250, but 260 is the best available option.
