Correct answer: B

To find the dividend at the receiver, we first calculate the CRC remainder. The data unit is 100111001 and the divisor is 1011. Since the divisor has 4 bits, we append 3 zeros to the data unit: 100111001000.

Performing modulo-2 division of this augmented data by the divisor yields a remainder of 101. The dividend at the receiver is formed by appending this remainder to the original data unit: 100111001 + 011 = 100111001011.
