The number of consecutive odd numbers is (Last term-Frist term)/2+1. Then, (705-545)/2+1=81, and the correct answer is C.

Simple Solution to this

705 - 545 then divide by 2 + 1 = 81

We are interested only in the doorplates which have odd numbers, so we have to exclude the pair numbers.

Between the first doorplate "545" and the last doorplate "705" are (705-545) / 2 +1 odd numbers . i. e. we have 160 / 2 + 1 = 81.

We divided by 2 to separate the pair numbers to the odd numbers, and we add 1 at the end to include the last number because it is odd (705). If the last number would be 704 for example, we should not have to add the 1 at the end.

The correct answer is C.
