Q's possibilities: 3 10 17 24 31 38 45 52 59 66 73 ...

35 multiples, 35, 70, 105, 140 ...

Check all the P+Q 5 multiples.

11+24 = 35 YES

16+24 = 40 NO

24 + 26 = 50 NO

24+ 36 = 60 NO

46 + 59 = 105 YES

Since we are getting more than 2 values, the answer should be E.
Uiima, now you can see this issue right, you almost needed to check almost 10 entries, it is very unusual to be solved within 2 minutes, right? particularly when hangover is that pattern normally emerges in gmat question after just a few entries.
Charged up again to beat the beast :)
