How to read it: Read it top to bottom: briefing strip (frequencies, missed approach), plan view, profile view, then the minimums table at the bottom.
A

4 DME miles from FEHXE.✓ Correct Answer

B

10 DME miles from the MAP.

C

12 DME miles from LIT VORTAC.

Explanation

The LIT RNAV (GPS) RWY 36 chart shows a hold-in-lieu of procedure turn at FEHXE with the note '4 NM Holding Pattern': the outbound leg is 4 NM (as a distance from FEHXE on the RNAV), after which you turn inbound. The missed approach point and the LIT VORTAC do not define this hold.
