Your answer C is 20% of the sale price.

So if your definition of "conventional loan" means the down payment is 20%, then your answer is right.

But I don't believe a 20% down payment is required for a conventional loan.

A conventional loan calls for a 3% down payment. 
10% of $195,000 is $19,500, so 3% must be about of that. Plus, there's only 1 amount in the list that's less than $19,500.
Quite SMPLE, isn't it?
