Simply use the options.
When the hundreds digit and ones digit are interchanged, the new number is about 400 less. So the ones digit will be about 4 or so less than the hundreds digit.
Only (D) fits. Let's check.
713 - 317 = 396
Answer (D)

100c+10b+a-99c-10b-100a = 396
or say
99( c-a) = 396
c-a = 4
options B & D are close
upon reviewing
713 -317 = 396
correct
IMO D
