Hi JK,

I've always been interested by this question, and thought it was rather unfair in terms of the way it was formulated. Most of the work you have done—unfortunately—is not relevant to the correct answer.

As with many of these problem set questions, this one has come up previously on the forum, at http://forum.powerscore.com/lsat/viewto ... =39&t=2093. Please take a look at that and let me know if that resolves this for you. If not, let me know and I'll help clear it up for you.

Thanks!
