Answer:A

Step-by-step explanation:

If Maria wants the same number of pies displayed she has to select a table that 112 can be divisible by without any remainder

1. Table of 4

112/4 is 28 with no remainder

2. Table of 6

112/6 is 18 remainder 4

3. Table of 10

112/10 is 11 remainder 2

So A is the answer
