Answer: The correct answer is

Earthquakes occur along fault lines, cracks in Earth's crust where tectonic plates meet. They occur where plates are subducting, spreading, slipping, or colliding. As the plates grind together, they get stuck and pressure builds up. Finally, the pressure between the plates is so great that they break loose.

Formular:

$atomic \: mass = \frac{ \sum(isotopic \: mass \times \%abundance)}{100} \\$

substitute:

$atomic \: mass = \frac{(23.985 \times 78.70) + (24.986 \times 10.13) + (25.983 \times 11.17)}{100} \\ \\ = \frac{(1887.620) + (253.108) + (290.230)}{100} \\ \\ = \frac{2430.958}{100} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \boxed{average \: atomic \: mass = 24.3 \: amu}}}$
