D D
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A. To determine the correct answer, we need to calculate the longitudinal center of gravity (LCG) of the floating jack-up using the given information. The LCG is given as 110.37 feet aft of frame zero (AF0). This means that the center of gravity is located 110.37 feet aft of the reference point, which is the frame zero. Therefore, the correct answer is A. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the location of the LCG based on the given information.
