Let the unknown quantity be 'p'.
$$ 5220 \div p \times 15 = 2175$$
Taking 'p' on right hand side of equation and 2175 to left side of equation.
$$ 5220 \div 2175 \times 15 = p$$
Now,
$$5220=15\times348$$
$$2175=15\times145$$
$$5220 \div 2175 = \frac{15\times348}{15\times145}$$
$$5220 \div 2175=\frac{348}{145}$$
Hence,
$$ 5220 \div 2175 \times 15 = \frac{348}{145}\times15$$
$$145=5\times29$$
$$348=12\times29$$
Therefore,
$$ 5220 \div 2175 \times 15 = \frac{12\times29}{5\times29}\times15$$
$$ 5220 \div 2175 \times 15 = \frac{12}{5}\times15=36$$
So,
$$p=36$$
Hence, Option A is Correct.
