The team will include 3 top scientists and 2 assistants from Taiwan. That means team already have Asian representative. So now we need to include 1 African, 1 Hispanic, 1 MBA (If possible all 3 of them women).
Helen female M.S. African American
Maria female Ph.D. Hispanic American
Bethany female MBA American
That makes a total of team size of 8, which is even. Team includes African, Hispanic, and Asian representative. Moreover there is minimum of 3 females in team size of 8 = 3*100/8 = 37.5%, which is more than required 33% (assuming that 3 top scientists and 2 assistants were all males)
Which means answer E.
