Solution

The correct option is A 6, 5, 3
Given,

To find the missing numbers, let's start from the ones places.

The floor reached after the 1st jump is subtracted from 6 to get 0. We can represent this as:

6 - 1st jump = 0

1st jump = 6 - 0

1st jump = 6

Moving to the tens places, we can see that they are already filled. So, we move to the hundreds places.

3 is subtracted from the 2nd jump floor number to get 1. However, one is borrowed by the tens place. We can represent this as:

(2nd jump - 1) - 3 = 1

2nd jump - 4 = 1

2nd jump = 1 + 4

2nd jump = 5

Moving to the thousands places,

4 is subtracted from 7 to get the 3rd jump floor number. We can represent this as:

7 - 4 = 3rd jump

3rd jump = 3

Therefore, the table can be represented as:
