Correct answer: C

Solution:

  1. Add the known whole numbers and decimals first: 543 + 5.43 = 548.43.

  2. Subtract that sum from the total to find the missing decimal number: 603.26 − 548.43 = 54.83.

  3. The decimal number with the missing digit must be 54.83, so the question mark is 8. Verify: 54.83 + 543 + 5.43 = 603.26.
