Option D

86

Step-by-step explanation:

When your expectation is average of 81 for a total of 10 questions, your total score is 10*81=810

Currently, for 5 questions with an average of 76, your total score is 5*76=380

Difference between total expected score and current score is 810-380=430

Average of difference with 5 questions is 430/5 = 86
