Unnecessary convoluted question. There is a maximum number of 2000 for a cutover migration and a recommended number of 150. Asking what the maximum recommended number is, is just wrong.

It's not that convoluted when you think about it. There's many things that have a "maximum" value. In this case, the maximum it is capable of doing is 2000, but this would take a long time to migrate that many users, so the maximum they recommend is 150. If you just say recommended, that makes it sound like it has to be exactly 150, no more no less, for the recommended number, which would be false. Less is better because it would take less time to migrate, so the maximum they recommend is 150, but less is even better. Hence maximum recommended.

A. 2,000 A maximum of 2,000 mailboxes can be migrated to Microsoft 365 or Office 365 by using a cutover Exchange migration. However, it is recommended that you only migrate 150 mailboxes.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/mailbox-migration/office-365-migration-best-practices. "You can migrate a maximum of 2,000 mailboxes from your on-premises Exchange organization to Microsoft 365 or Office 365 using a cutover migration. The recommended number of mailboxes, however, is 150. Performance suffers with numbers higher than that. The mail contacts and distribution groups in your on-premises Exchange organization are also migrated." Confusing....

Even though cutover migration supports moving up to 2000 mailboxes, due to length of time it takes to create and migrate 2000 users, it is more reasonable to migrate 150 users or fewer. So answer will be 2000

Actuallt the answer is correct, 150 mailboxes: 'A maximum of 2,000 mailboxes can be migrated to Microsoft 365 or Office 365 by using a cutover Exchange migration.

I take back my previous answer, I missunderstood the question. While Cutover Migration supports up to 2000, the RECOMMENDED number of max is 150, due to the time it takes to migrate a bigger number. C is correct.

The correct answer is A - 2000. There is no migration method that has 150 as a max number,
