The correct answer is: 76.85
Molecular mass of
$$
\begin{aligned}
\mathrm{C}_{57} \mathrm{H}_{110} \mathrm{O}_6= & (12 \times 57)+(110 \times 1)+(6 \times 16) \\
=684+110+ & 96=890 \\
\text { Mass } \% \text { of } \mathrm{C} & =\frac{\text { Mass of } \mathrm{C}}{\text { Molecular mass of compound }} \times 100 \\
& =\frac{684}{890} \times 100=76.85 \%
\end{aligned}
