Which revision of the third sentence follows the style guide and best retains the clarity of the original? we conducted a survey of notaries public in the immediate area and asked which type of notary stamp they liked best. everyone but sara and jonah chose a pre-inked stamp. her preference was an embosser and his was an integrated ink pad. a. two of the notaries public preferred an embosser and an integrated ink pad. b. one notary public preferred an embosser and the other an integrated ink pad. c. their preference was an embosser and an integrated ink pad. d. she preferred the embosser and he preferred the integrated ink pad.

B. One notary public preferred an embosser and the other an integrated ink pad.

Explanation:

All the people who answered the survey are notaries public . We can see this when the narrator says that he did a survey with notaries public, and everyone, except Sara and Jonah, chose a pre-inked stamp. Sara (who is a notary public) preferred the pre-inked stamp, while Jonah (who is another notary public) preferred the integrated ink pad. Thus we can conclude that one notary public preferred one printer and the other an integrated ink block.
