Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?f=225&t=35163)
The correct answer choice is (D)
In our discussion of diagramming the sequence, we discussed the possibilities for Z: Z could row as far forward as seat 1, or as far back as seat 5. Consequently, Z could occupy any of five different seats, and answer choice (D) is correct.
Answer choices (A), (B), and (C): Because the question stem asks for how many different seats Z can occupy, these answer choices are insufficient since they each supply a number that is less than the maximum number of seats that Z can occupy.
Answer choice (E): From the third rule we know that Z must always row closer to the front than O. Consequently, Z can never row at seat 6, and therefore Z cannot row in all six different seats. This answer is therefore incorrect.
