y,w,x,c,n are all variables.. there is no relation between them to cancel out..
So choose an answer that has all 5 of them.. only E

Hope this helps!! ;)

Wow !! Really wonderful solution I must say ( without any math involved)..:-)
If this clicks when the clock is ticking then definitely one will have an edge..
I am on a break !!
