The paintings of French painter Trianne Dejere sold best in the period following the production of La Triump now Dejere's most famous piece. In the 12-month period preceding the unveiling of this piece, Dejere sold 57% of the works she produced in this period, a far greater percentage than in previous years. In the 12-month period following a glowing review of La Triumph in a popular magazine, however, Dejere sold 85% of the paintings she produced. Interestingly, Dejere's revenue from painting sales was roughly the same in both periods, since she sold the same number of paintings in the 12 months before presenting La Triumph as she did in the 12 months following the favorable review.
Which of the following statements can be properly concluded from the passage, if the information above is true?
(A) Due to the positive review, Dejere was able to charge substantially more for the works produced after La Triumph than the works produced before it.
(B) Dejere was more concerned with positive reviews than with increasing the prices of her paintings.
(C) The positive review of La Triumph brought Dejere's work to the attention of more art collectors than were previously aware of her work.
(D) Dejere painted fewer works in the 12-month period following the review of La Triumph than she had in the 12-month period preceding its unveiling.
(E) Dejere paid more attention to marketing her paintings after La Triumph received such a positive reception

Passage presents a paradox. How can the revenue be the same when she sold different percentages of her paintings in the two 12-month periods mentioned
1st period - 57% painting sold
2nd period - 85% painting sold
What could be the reason?
Which of the following statements can be properly concluded from the passage, if the information above is true?
(A) Due to the positive review, Dejere was able to charge substantially more for the works produced after La Triumph than the works produced before it.
--> This would deepen the paradox as it shows the further reason for increase in revenue post the reviews.
(B) Dejere was more concerned with positive reviews than with increasing the prices of her paintings.
--> Her concern does not change the facts established
(C) The positive review of La Triumph brought Dejere's work to the attention of more art collectors than were previously aware of her work.
--> This might explain the higher percentage of paintings sold but not how the revenue stayed constant.
(D) Dejere painted fewer works in the 12-month period following the review of La Triumph than she had in the 12-month period preceding its unveiling.
--> This would resolve the paradox. A higher percentage of a smaller value could be equal to a smaller percentage of a larger value. The number of paintings could be same hence the revenue could be same.
(E) Dejere paid more attention to marketing her paintings after La Triumph received such a positive reception
--> Same as C above
IMO Option D

She sold a lower percentage of her works preceding the unveiling and a higher percentage of her work after the unveiling. But the number of works in both time periods was the same. This means the number of works she produced before the unveiling was more than the number of works she produced after.
Hence D should be correct.
Hence D should be correct.
