Correct answer is (d) 38 KHz

Explanation: Stereo broadcasting is made possible by using a SUBCARRIER on FM radio stations, which takes the left channel and “subtracts” the right channel from it. A subcarrier is basically a sideband of a radio frequency carrier WAVE, which is MODULATED to send additional INFORMATION. The frequency set for stereo sub carrier SIGNAL in FM broadcasting is 38 KHz.
