B Correct answer
Explanation

421% means 421/100 = 4.21. So (738 × 4.21) ÷ 518 = (738 × 4.21) ÷ 518. 738 × 4 = 2952, 738 × 0.21 = 738 × 21/100 = 154.98. Total = 2952 + 154.98 = 3106.98. Now 3106.98 ÷ 518 ≈ 6 (since 518 × 6 = 3108, which is very close). The question asks for approximate value. Option B (6) is the closest and correct answer.
