Given,
Highest modulating frequency, $f_m=5 \mathrm{kHz}$
$=5 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~Hz}$
$\therefore$ Bandwidth $(\mathrm{BW}), f^{\prime}=2 f_m$
$=2 \times 5 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~Hz}=10^4 \mathrm{~Hz}$
Total bandwidth, $f=150 \mathrm{kHz}$
$=150 \times 10^3 \mathrm{~Hz}$
$\therefore$ Number of stations
$=\frac{f}{f^{\prime}}=\frac{150 \times 10^3}{10^4}=15$
