Should be D due to the following:
2 rules (1 inbound and 1 outbound) for App1
1 rule for App2

Application ports do not account in this answer, considering Windows firewall permits a granular control for both inbound and outbound rules. I guess the best criteria to answer this question is to count all required port direction rules to be created.
