Consider a table T in a relational database with a key field K. A B-tree of order p is used as an access structure on K, where p denotes the maximum number of tree pointers in a B-tree index node. Assume that K is 10 bytes long; disk block size is 512 bytes; each data pointer PD is 8 bytes long and each block pointer PB is 5 bytes long. In order for each B-tree node to fit in a single disk block, the maximum value of p is
