Solution

To find the best choice for Terry, we need to add up the populations of the towns in each option and see which one is closest to 63,000.

A. 13,445 + 27,800 + 22,430 = 63,675 B. 10,809 + 42,328 + 22,529 = 75,666 C. 17,189 + 23,529 + 27,800 = 68,518 D. 22,430 + 42,328 + 17,189 = 81,947

Looking at these totals, option A with a total of 63,675 is the closest to 63,000. Therefore, the best choice for Terry to select would be option A.
