Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?f=269&t=1940)

The correct answer choice is (A)

To separate L’s two aisles by the maximum number of aisles while still meeting the requirements of the sixth rule would require placing L in aisles 1 and 8 or in aisles 2 and 9. But, because K stocks aisle 2 from the second rule, aisles 2 and 9 are not an option. Thus, you should create a hypothetical with L stocking aisles 1 and 8, or alternately refer to Templates #1 and #2 if you created those templates during your setup.

If L stocks aisles 1 and 8, then J must stock aisle 9, leaving the MKM block, and O and J to stock the middle aisles:

Accordingly, answer choice (A) is correct.
