The block has the same mass so force will be the same for the 3 different possibilities, but the area is different for each one. The one with the least surface area will have the most pressure as the force is devided by a lesser area (As we see in the formula), SO therefore, A is your answer.
That's your answer, have a nice day and goodluck with your work! :)

Answer:
Maximum pressure exerted in diagram A
Explanation:
The formula for pressure is:
Pressure= Force / Area
