Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?f=280&t=8537)
The correct answer choice is (A)
As discussed during the setup, one of the novel distributions allows for three French novels and no Russian novels to be selected. Hence, answer choice (A) is correct.
Answer choice (B) is incorrect because selecting only one French novel would result in fewer than five works being selected, a violation of the condition in the game scenario.
Answer choice (C) is incorrect because the fourth rule disallows all three plays from being selected.
Answer choice (D) is incorrect because from the third rule all three French novels would have to be selected, which would result in a violation of the second rule that a maximum of four novels are selected.
Answer choice (E) is incorrect because this selection would violate the first rule, which limits the number of French works to four.
