I believe there is some issue with the question, probably phrased incorrectly - what is the source of this question?

I agree, there seems to be some issue with the question. What is the source?
My ans is B. Because only multiples of 6 between 50 and 60- is 54 and 60. But 1 book is left so eliminate 60 and we are left with 54.
