Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=14889)
The correct answer choice is (E).
At first glance, this question appears that it could be very time-consuming. However, if you made the inferences regarding T and O that are tested in questions #13 and #15, this question is easy.
Answer choice (A) is incorrect because T must be planted in both parks whereas O can only be planted in at most one park.
Answer choice (B) is incorrect because there is at least one park planted with S, but at most one park planted with O. Therefore, the plantings of O could equal the plantings of S, but never exceed them.
Answer choice (C) is incorrect because, as discussed during the setup, T must be planted in both parks.
Answer choice (D) is incorrect because T must be planted in both parks.
Accordingly, answer choice (E) is proven correct by process of elimination. Both parks could have M, S, and T.
