   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.
