Solution

A Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) system can withstand up to (n-1)/3 faulty nodes, where n is the total number of nodes.

Step 1: Identify the total number of nodes. In this case, it's 5.

Step 2: Substitute the total number of nodes into the formula. So, (5-1)/3 = 4/3.

Since the number of faulty nodes must be a whole number, we round down to the nearest whole number.

So, a Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) system with 5 nodes can withstand 1 faulty node. Therefore, the answer is A) 1 faulty node.
