A Correct answer
Explanation

'Few' without an article has a negative meaning (almost none, not many). The sentence context suggests the speaker means 'a few hours' (some hours, several hours) of study would not be sufficient. With 'few', the sentence would mean 'almost no hours of study is not sufficient', which is illogical. It should be 'A few hours study'.
