took me just over a minute. at first look,
stands out as the answer. But had to eliminate the rest. was easy to eliminate A and C and had to verify the 2nd half of the sentence to ensure which one was right.
A) Inigo Services, Jauplaunkt Services, or Larkens Client Services, with the rate of contraction lessened
- comparison is incorrect, as we cannot compare client bases to the company name.B) the client base of Inigo Services, Jauplaunkt Services, and Larkens Client Services, with the rate of contraction that has lessened
- since multiple companies are involved, it should be client bases.C) has Inigo Services, Jauplaunkt Services, and Larkens Client Services, and the rate of contraction has lessened
- same explanation as A, so rule out.
D) has that of Inigo Services, Jauplaunkt Services, or Larkens Client Services, and the rate of contraction lessening
- 'has that of' - had to read this twice. but does not make sense, probably 'that of' made more sense.
E) the client bases of Inigo Services, Jauplaunkt Services, and Larkens Client Services, and the rate of contraction has lessened
- best choice as we are comparing client base of 1 company to client bases of many.
