A 231.0 ft
B 234.3 ft
C 244.6 ft
D 251.5 ft
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 231.0 ft. To determine the LCG-FP (Longitudinal Center of Gravity - from Forward Perpendicular) of the liquid load, you need to refer to the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book and use the information provided in the table ST-0116. The LCG-FP value can be found in the "Longitudinal Center of Gravity (LCG)" column for the given liquid load conditions. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the LCG-FP value provided in the reference book for the specified liquid load conditions.
