Right answer is total depth.

Working depth=total depth-clearance.

Clearance is the radial distance between the top of the tooth of the one gear to the bottom of the tooth of another mating gear.

The radial distance from the top of a tooth to the bottom of a tooth in a "meshing gear".

Focus on the word meshing gear. So the correct answer is option C.

Exactly right. Thanks @Dinesh.

I agree @Dinesh.

In Meshing gear means top portion of gear A and bottom portion of gear B. Whenever both are meshing condition than always clearance between them. Therefore the correct answer is C.
