Correct answer: F0/7.
Why this is the answer
In routing, a router uses its routing table to determine the best path for a packet. The routing table contains entries that map destination networks to outgoing interfaces and next-hop IP addresses. When a router receives a packet, it looks up the destination IP address in its routing table. The entry that provides the longest match (most specific network address) dictates the outgoing interface. Without the specific routing table or network topology, we assume that F0/7 is the interface associated with the route to the destination network. The other interfaces (F0/6, F0/4, F0/5) are incorrect because they are not the designated outgoing interface for the destination network according to the (unseen) routing table.
