Scan the answer choices....(C and D).....
13 is NOT a factor of 45.
ELIMINATE C

By the process of elimination, the correct answer is D

Cheers,
Brent

Scan the two remaining answer choices....
7 is NOT a factor of 45.
ELIMINATE A, B and E

Since 45 does not contain 7 or 13 as a factor, of the answer choices, only D can be correct.
