1 meter.

Since the number of members attending is 40, you can eliminate 17 as a possible answer, as it is smaller than 40. You can also eliminate 240 because 40 members is 60%, so the answer must be less than 80. You are now left with 67 and 73.

It is (a) because 40 divided by 67 = 0.597. 0.597 x 100 = 59.7% which is rounded to 60% of the club
