Given: n is an odd number and a multiple of 5
So, some possible values of n include 5, 15, 25, 35, 45, etc
If n = 15, then n divided by 12 leaves a remainder of 3.
Since 3 < 6, we see that Quantity B is greater than Quantity A
If n = 35, then n divided by 12 leaves a remainder of 11.
Since 11 > 6, we see that Quantity A is greater than Quantity B
Answer: D
