Explanation

#FFFFFF is the correct hexadecimal color code for white, where each pair of hex digits (FF, FF, FF) represents the maximum value (255) for the red, green, and blue channels respectively - fully saturated RGB produces white. Option B (#000000) is the opposite: all channels at zero, which produces black (the background color in this scenario, not the text). Option A ("white") is a valid CSS named color keyword, but it is not a hexadecimal reference as the question specifically asks for. Option D ("255,255,255") is the RGB decimal notation format, not hexadecimal. A useful memory trick: think "F is the highest hex digit, and full brightness across all channels = white" - so #FFFFFF is the "full blast" color, while #000000 is "nothing/no light" = black.
