Solution
The correct option is C do
The given sentence means: 'We will have to adjust with the limited money which is available for this month'. The phrase 'make do' means 'manage with the limited or inadequate means available'. As this phrase meaningfully completes the given sentence, option B is correct. The phrase 'make up' means 'be reconciled after a quarrel'. The phrase 'make off' means 'leave hurriedly, especially in order to avoid duty or punishment'. Given the meanings of these two phrases, they cannot meaningfully complete the given sentence. Hence, options A and D are incorrect. The phrase 'make through' does not convey any meaning. Hence, option C is incorrect.
