In the same angle adjustment, what is the adjusted value of angle C?

Explanation:
Equal angular adjustment distributes the total misclosure evenly across all angles measured in the same setup. You compute a single correction amount and apply that same delta to each angle in that group, so the adjusted angles sum to the theoretical total required for the figure. In this problem, the common correction turns out to be 22 seconds of arc, so you add 22" to the observed value of angle C. That yields 230°00'22" as the adjusted value.
