Only if Mallika knew where Jayesh’s car was parked could she have stolen it from the parking garage. But Jayesh claims he did not tell her where his car was parked. If he is telling the truth, she would not have known unless she had been watching as his car was parked. But she was not watching. So either Jayesh told Mallika where his car was parked or someone besides Mallika stole the car from the parking garage.
Which one of the following, if assumed, enables the argument’s conclusion to be properly drawn?
(A) If Jayesh told Mallika where his car was parked, Mallika did not steal his car.
(B) If Jayesh told Mallika where his car was parked, she could have stolen it from the parking garage.
(C) Jayesh could not have told anyone other than Mallika where his car was parked.
(D) Someone other than Mallika was watching as Jayesh’s car was parked.
(E) Someone stole Jayesh’s car from the parking garage.
