Explanation

This is an interesting question however if you break it down it starts to make sense Main Office has the Global Catalog Servers - not the Branch Offices Branch Offices connect to the main office via a Wan Link While each branch office does have a domain controller they are not Global Catalog Servers. Further there are 50 branch offices so it makes no sense to deploy a mailbox server in each branch office or to have 50 Global Catalog Servers The best answer is D as this would meet the requirement of deploying the least amount of Exchange Servers
