    B)  344

    C)  338

    D)  342

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Area of sheet \[\text{=(384}\times \text{172) c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\] \[\text{= 66048 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\] Area of paper for 1 envelope \[=(16\times 12)\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}=192\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \] Number of envelopes can be made \[=\frac{66048}{192}=344\]
