let no: of girls be x.
then by equation we have: (36-x)/3 + x/4 = no: of students who walk.
therefore: 12 - x/12 = no: of students who walk.
the above expression will be maximum when x=12.
hence, no: of boys = 36-12=24, girls=12., students who walk = 11.

in D, the "it" hust follows the comma. in this, case it is not required, as the previous clause is already explaining the subject "interstudy". The misplaced "it" arises ambiguity and hence must be avoided. Of the rest C is the best. A, B and E have "they" whi...

As far as A goes, the pronoun "it" is ambiguous, and can't say what it refers to.
B changes the meaning "effect on their "size to size of their effect"
C awkward.
D has a plural their effect , whereas it should be singular "it's effect".
E is gramatically correct.

i can't see why E should be the answer. it is clearly out of scope. the answer has to be C., the question is not good, very ambiguous for Gmat levels.
