Dividing both sides of the equation p = 4q by 4, we get q = p/4. We are also given that p < 8. Dividing
both sides of this inequality by 4 yields, p/4 < 8/4. Simplifying it, we get p/4 < 2. But q = p/4. Hence, q < 2.
The only non-zero positive integer less than 2 is 1. Hence, q = 1. The answer is (A).
