Answer»

The CORRECT CHOICE is (b) hill cipher

The BEST I can explain: In transposition cipher and mono alphabetic cipher the number of LETTERS remains the same in ciphered and deciphered text. But in poly alphabetic cipher the number of letters are different. So here as hill cipher is the only poly alphabetic cipher so it will be the ANSWER.
