Complete Question Explanation

(The complete setup for this game can be found here: https://forum.powerscore.com/lsat/viewtopic.php?t=31745)

The correct answer choice is (C).

Y can only be added to the soup under Template #2. If added fifth, the sequence would appear as follows:

• K
  O G Y
  T

Given that the only uncertainty in this diagram revolves around K or T being third or fourth, you should immediately examine answers that contain K or T in those positions first.


Answer choice (A): G must be second, and so this answer is incorrect.

Answer choice (B): J cannot appear in a recipe with Y.

Answer choice (C): This is the correct answer.

Answer choice (D): There are only five ingredients in this template.

Answer choice (E): O must be first, and so this answer is incorrect.
