Dear friends,
I need you help clarify why E is incorrect, I picked up E, while OA is A

The largest trade-book publisher in the US has announced the creation of a new digital imprint division, under which it will publish about 20 purely digital works to be sold online as either electronic books or downloadable copies that can be printed upon purchase.
A) works to be sold online as either electronic books or
B) works to sell them online either as electronic books or
C) works and it will sell them online as either electronic books or as
D) works, and selling them online as either electronic books or as
E) works, and it will sell them online as either electronic books or


IMO, "under which it will publish...",
"it" refers to the publisher, "which" refers to "imprint division", so my understanding is that under the imprint division, the trade-book publisher will publish....., and sell the works........
that's why I picked up E

please help clarify where is incorrect?

thanks a lot..

have a nice day.

This is precisely the reason why E is wrong. No where in the original sentence is it mentioned that the publisher will publish and sell
Option E changes the meaning and says that the publisher will sell.

Does this help?
