I don't see how D could be a MUST be true answer (I went with E).
It COULD be true, but I don't see anything in the question that would prohibit it from the following:
Lakeview:
1-9 employees: 20%
10-14 employees: 0%
15+ employees: 80%
As for E, if Lakeview has a higher percentage of 15+ employee buisnesses, then wouldn't it also have a higher employee to buisness ratio over grandview?

D is definitely the right answer. This is a pretty direct copy of an official question: https://gmatclub.com/forum/the-percenta ... l#p2565089
The trick you're missing is that if Lakeshore has the most businesses with 15 or more, but Grandview has the most with 10 or more (which of course includes 15+), then Grandview must have some with 10 but not 15. If all of Grandview's 10+ businesses were also 15+, then Grandview would be the one with the most 15+ businesses, which we're told it's not. Using your numbers for Grandview, there's no way for Lakeshore to have more than 80% at the 15+ level without thereby having more than 80% at the 10+ level, since this is inclusive of the higher category.
As for E, we have no idea about employee to business ratios, since we don't know the average size of the businesses, just the relative amounts in two categories.

Looking back, i read the answer as "some businesses in LAKEVIEW city have between 10-15", not some businesses in Grandview.
