    Correct answer is 1. My thinking process is that we have 2 Eigen values of T . And dim N(T) = 3 implies geometric multiplicity of 0 is 3 so A.M >=3 and similar G.M of 4 is 1 so A.M of 4 >= 1. from both the condition above AM = GM for both Eigen values because it can't exceed for any one Eigen value because that will result in AM
