We can use the elimination method here.
The question says we need a number that is completely divisible by (2^32 + 1). So, a number that satisfies this condition will be larger than the given number.
Option A and B are obviously smaller.
Option C and D are the choices.
On a closer analysis we find that even option c is smaller than the actual number.
So we are left with option D as our final answer. You need to use your wit rather than calculation to solve a problem.
