All integer choices are a divisor of 15! but 13 is the only divisor of both 15! as well as 13 or that of 15! ± 13.

15! = 15*14*13 .....
therefore 15! + 13 can be factorized to 13(15*14*12! + 1), thus 13 is a divisor of 13

I hope that explains it

approach?
15! = 1*2*..*13*14*15

= 13k (k being 1*2*3....*12*14*15)


15!+13 = 13K +13 = 13(K+1) so 13 is a factor of 15!+13 so C
