Quick rule of thumb is 850hPa is 1.5km (FL050) 500hPa is about 5km ( FL180)and 300hPa is approximately 10km (FL300). Based on this, there is only one possible answer out of the four.

Why don’t you study the Standard Pressure decrease And open your bloody books as the previous poster mentioned and make a calculation.
