Beacons are always sent at the LOWEST mandatory rate, and since the screenshot is of a Beacon frame, it only allows to determine the Lowest mandatory rate being 24 Mbps
All other rates shown in the screenshot can be either supported or mandatory, but there is no way to tell what they are exactly.
I think the question/answer are based on this article: https://mrncciew.com/2014/09/22/802-11ac-wireless-packet-captures/
Strangely the article states “As you can see it is transmitted at 24Mbps (highest mandatory rate configured on 802.11a band in my WLC).”
However I agree that the beacons are sent at the lowest mandatory rate, so a little confusing. I think they took his wording although it was wrong.

Thanks! It seems that guy composed these weird questions.
Why is answer A ? I do not see 54 as mandatory
Answer is A : 54 (configured for the AP)
Why the answer is C ?
802.11a mandatory rates by default: 6, 12 and 24Mbps. So I think the answer is C
