In one of the most stunning reversals in the history of marketing, the Coca-Cola company in July 1985 yielded to thousands of irate consumers demanding that it should bring back the original Coke formula.

(A) demanding that it should
(B) demanding it to
(C) and their demand to
(D) who demanded that it
(E) who demanded it to

[spoiler]OA: D[/spoiler]

We know the following:

1. Demand that X be Y
2. Demand X to do Y


In D, consumers who demanded it (x) to bring back the original Coke formula (Y). It should be correct, but the OA is different. What is the actual problem in this option? Am I missing something else?

Please explain.

Thanks.

Is demand X to do Y incorrect?

This one comes under the category of subjunctive mood.

Subjunctive deals with imaginary or uncertain situations. It also deals with desires and wishes of people.

The verbs that usually take on the subjunctive form are forbid, desire, demand, forbid, insist, order, propose etc.

Note this is not an exhaustive list and there are many other similar words.

In such cases the correct form is "that+infinitive form of verb" (without the word "to")

Hope this helps. If not, there is a good chapter on subjunctive moods and verbs on MGMAT and similar other books

As Abhi said this question comes under subjunctive mood. Though A has 'that' in it, subjunctive mood must not have 'should' in it.

Please check MGMAT SC guide for further information.

Yes it is incorrect.

demand only supports the 1st version.
1. Demand that X be Y -> correct
2. Demand X to do Y -> Incorrect
