Craming last minute can lead to unecessary confusion however most examinars dont allow asking questions during exam
So if asking questions for clarification is allowed. A) is the odd one out
And these options are rather for test taking than learning
We plug in d as 2, so 8/4 - d would be 8/4 - 2. Now, 8/4 is equal to 2, so 2 - 2 = 0.

Hope this helps!
Answer: a = c^(1/2) which is the first answer choice of the list
Work Shown:
a = b^(2/3) ... given equation
a = (c^(3/4))^(2/3) ... replace b with c^(3/4)
a = c^((3/4)*(2/3)) .... multiply exponents
a = c^(1/2) .... Simplify; note the 3's cancel, also 2/4 turns into 1/2
