$69.80

Explanation:

Note, a market order is an order designed to execute an order immediately by matching the best available price on the sell order list.

When we look carefully at the sell order book, we observe that the only sell order containing the specified quantity of 120 units of shares at a price close to the market price is $69.80. Even though there are other cheaper orders are available, their order quantity does not match the market buy order for the 120 shares and thus would not be filled.
