To subtract, we need to borrow from the second digit in the first group of digits, since 6 is less than 7. This gives us a new first group of digits of 11ebb7d5. Now we can subtract each digit, which gives us:

11ebb7d5_6e24_0222_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_00
- 11ebb7d6_6e24_0222_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_00
-----------------------------------------------------
00000000_0000_0000_0000_000000000000_TB8285_00

This answer is already in lowest terms, since there are no non-zero digits in the numerator. Choice D is the only one that matches this answer. To subtract, we need to find a common denominator. The denominator of the first fraction is 1, while the denominator of the second fraction is 11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11. Thus, we need to multiply the first fraction by 11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11/1, which gives us 11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11/11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11. When we subtract, we get (11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11 - 6e24_0222_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_00)/11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11. We can simplify the numerator by borrowing from the 11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c and the ad4c, which gives us 11ebb7d6_6e24_2934_dde4_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11/11ebb7d6_6e24_2935_ad4c_47a813b60ef0_TB8285_11. This fraction is in lowest terms, and choice D matches this value.
