210*143 = 3*7*2*5*11*13
= 6 prime factors.

Thus f(6) = f(2*3) -> 2 factors.

f(210x143) = no of prime factors of 210 x 143
210 x 143 = (2 x 3 x 5 x 7) x (11 x 13) .. thus total 6 prime factors

f(6) = no of prime factors of 6 are 2 and 3 i.e. 2 is answer

B.

f(f(210 × 143))

210 = 2 × 3 × 5 × 7
143 = 11 × 13

210 × 143 = 2 × 3 × 5 × 7 × 11 × 13
This has 6 prime factors.

f(210 × 143) = 6

6 = 2 × 3
So 6 has 2 prime factors.
f(6) = 2

Ans B
