Correct answer
With an appropriate gear for engine braking and braking when needed.
Use an appropriate gear to benefit from engine braking and apply the service brake when necessary. Avoid coasting in neutral or holding the clutch down, which removes engine braking. Do not force excessive engine speed or treat engine braking as a reason to avoid braking when safety requires it.
