I just screwed up on this question and assumed that their are only paralegal and attorneys in the legal services. I guess the important thing to notice here or in general must be true type of question : Don't assume.
if you don't make the asumption i made than mathematically some of the statements can or can't be true. But the choice D is the only one which have to be true.
After all if the avg of x employee's salary is 50k than at least their is one employee with 50k salary.
