    A) (2x + 1) (x + 3)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Factor 2x² + 7x + 3

    Since 2 is prime (it's only factors are 1 and itself) we know we can start out our factors as ...

    (2x + a) (x + b)

    Three is also prime, so we either have

    (2x + 1) (x + 3)

    or

    (2x + 3) (x + 1)

    Foiling (2x + 1) (x + 3) will give us the result we want. So the answer is A
