1. **State the problem:** We need to find the arc measure of the minor arc \(\stackrel{\large{\frown}}{BC}\) in degrees on a circle centered at point P with points A, B, C, and D on the circle. Given that \(AC\) and \(BD\) are diameters, and angles \(\angle APD = 2K + 153^\circ\) and \(\angle BPC = 4K + 159^\circ\).
2. **Recall important facts:**
- Since \(AC\) and \(BD\) are diameters, points A and C are opposite ends of a diameter, and points B and D are opposite ends of another diameter.
- The angles \(\angle APD\) and \(\angle BPC\) are central angles subtending arcs \(AD\) and \(BC\) respectively.
- The sum of central angles around point P is \(360^\circ\).
3. **Set up the equation:**
\[
\angle APD + \angle BPC = 360^\circ
\]
Substitute the expressions:
\[
(2K + 153) + (4K + 159) = 360
\]
4. **Simplify and solve for K:**
\[
2K + 153 + 4K + 159 = 360
\]
\[
6K + 312 = 360
\]
\[
6K = 360 - 312
\]
\[
6K = 48
\]
\[
K = \frac{48}{6}
\]
\[
K = 8
\]
5. **Find \(\angle BPC\):**
\[
\angle BPC = 4K + 159 = 4(8) + 159 = 32 + 159 = 191^\circ
\]
6. **Interpret the result:**
The central angle \(\angle BPC\) measures \(191^\circ\), which corresponds to the major arc \(BC\).
7. **Find the minor arc \(\stackrel{\large{\frown}}{BC}\):**
Since the full circle is \(360^\circ\), the minor arc measure is:
\[
360^\circ - 191^\circ = 169^\circ
\]
**Final answer:** The arc measure of the minor arc \(\stackrel{\large{\frown}}{BC}\) is \(169^\circ\).
