The correct answer is: 43

Given 

A1A3A5A7=11296  

Expanding using An=A1rn-1 formula we get,

 A1A1r2A1r4A1r6=11296

A14r12=11296A1r3=16     ...i

Also given ,

A2+A4=736A1r+A1r3=736

A1r+16=736

A1r=136   ...ii

Dividing equation (i) from equation (ii) we get, r2=6 

Now A6+A8+A10=A1r5+A1r7+A1r9

=A1r3r2+r4+r6 =166+36+216  =43
