To solve the equation \( 4x - 189 = 578 \), we can start by isolating \( x \).

1. Add 189 to both sides of the equation:
\[
4x = 578 + 189
\]
\[
4x = 767
\]

2. Now, divide both sides by 4 to solve for \( x \):
\[
x = \frac{767}{4}
\]
\[
x = 191.75
\]

Since there are no options provided that exactly match \( 191.75 \), the closest estimate would be:

**200**

So, the best estimate for \( x \) based on the given options is **200**.
