See B: 2n is div by as twice many no as n so if n=2, div by 1,2, 2*n = 4 is div by 1, 2, 4 not twice as many as n
if n=1, div by 1, 2*n=2, div by 1,2 so twice as many
if n=3, div by 1,3, 2*3 is div by, 1, 2, 3, 6 i.e. 4.
So B is suff.
Idea here is in 2*n, if n is even, then two scenario arises:
for n=2, 2*2 will have 3 divisor, 1,2,4
n=4, 2*4 will have 4 div, 1, 2, 4, 8
Idea is one factor 2 is common and so it never results in twice the divisor for 2*n.
but if n is odd, n will be having 2 divisor, namely 1 and n while 2*n will have, 1, 2, n, and 2*n. So B is suff
