\(P = { 5, 7}\) & \(Q = {13,17}\)

\(A_{Min} = 5*13 = 65\) {Options (D) & (E) can be straightaway be rejected as minimum value of 65 is not withing rane}

\(A_{Max} = 7*17 = 119\) {Options (A) can be straightaway be rejected as maximum value of 119 is not withing rane}

Thus, IMHO (B) and (C) remains...
