I'm pretty sure the answer is not 'D) 1220 mm (48 in)'. That's way too high for someone in a wheelchair to reach.

Wow, 54 inches? That's like a basketball hoop for the pay phone! I guess they want us to dunk our coins in.

Yeah, that does seem pretty high. Maybe they want to make sure it's accessible for everyone.
