I can't make sense of your calculation; what you've basically done is 576/(4/3). Now if you used 576 because it's the total number of lines in the PAL image, then the method is incorrect. However, the answer is right because, by coincidence, 576 is also equal to the number of active lines in the letterboxed picture 324 * (16/9).

My result was based on 324 * (16/9) / (4/3) = 432.
