For a $3 \times 3$ matrix $M$,let $\text{trace}(M)$ denote the sum of all the diagonal elements of $M$. Let $A$ be a $3 \times 3$ matrix such that $|A|=\frac{1}{2}$ and $\text{trace}(A)=3$. If $B=\operatorname{adj}(\operatorname{adj}(2A))$,then the value of $|B|+\text{trace}(B)$ equals:

  • A
    $56$
  • B
    $132$
  • C
    $174$
  • D
    $280$
