In a recent survey, 9 out of 10 people using Slim-Ease for two weeks as directed reported that they lost weight during this period. This fact surely proves that Slim-Ease is effective for anyone wanting to shed some unwanted pounds.
The claim made above depends on which of the following assumptions?
(A) The survey participants were not using Slim-Ease immediately prior to the two-week period.
(B) The survey participants did not exercise during the two-week period.
(C) The survey participants were overweight prior to the two week period.
(D) The survey participants’ dietary habits were otherwise similar during the two-week period and prior to that period.
(E) No other product is more effective than Slim-Ease to help lose weight.

It's between B & D by negation.
D compares the 2-week period to the regime prior to the 2 weeks but it allows for other factors such as exercise.
B says there was no exercise but there could have easily been other factors such as dietary change.
Nevertheless, I'm going with D because there is something to compare it with.
