Explanation

Can you explain why it isn't C? I was stuck between C and D, and ultimately chose C. Doesn't an inadequate sample size weaken that advertisement?

I thought C and D were equally good choices, so I got confused there.

We only have sample size issues when we are explicitly told the size is very small.
