Definition of a language LL with alphabet {a}\{a\} is given as

L={ankk>0, and n is a positive integer constant}L = \{a^{nk} \mid k > 0, \text{ and } n \text{ is a positive integer constant}\}

What is the minimum number of states needed in a DFA to recognize LL?
(i) k+1k + 1
(ii) n+1n + 1
(iii) 2n+12^{n + 1}
(iv) 2k+12^{k + 1}
