Choices D and E use the construction between x or y , this is not the correct idiom. The correct idiom is between x and y; this leaves me to choose between A, B, and C. B and C have errors as other fellas pointed out.

Hi hrishi19884.

Focus_gmat:

I will post the OA as soon as I get 3 more opinions about the answer. Why E is out of scope ? Although E does not sound like a good answer for me, it is the best I could choose. E sounds more of an inference than an assumption.
