correct answer A
Tani,
You’re not so really correct, because the 16 unique group numbers can be used 16 times on layer 3 interfaces.
The question is asking for a maximum. Therefore, E is correct.
Cheers!

“The switch supports HSRP MAC addresses for up to 16 unique HSRP groups. Because each group address can be used on up to 16 Layer 3 interfaces, the maximum number of HSRP interfaces is 256.”
The question asks for the maximum number of groups, not the maximum number of interfaces. A is correct.
from cisco site—- Ethernet: 256 per router
