59. In 1978 only half the women granted child support by a court received the amount awarded; at least as much as a million and more others had not any support agreements whatsoever.
(A) at least as much as a million and more others had not any
(B) at least as much as more than a million others had no
(C) more than a million others had not any
(D) more than a million others had no(D)
(E) there was at least a million or more others without any
D, the best choice, is idiomatic, clear, and concise. Both A and B incorrectly use much rather than many to describe the countable noun others; much should be used with uncountable nouns such as “joy” and “labor.” Even if this error were corrected, though, A and B would still be wrong. Because more than x necessarily includes the sense of at least as many as x, it is redundant and confusing to use elements of both expressions to refer to the same number of women. In A and C, not any support agreements is wordy and awkward. Like A and B, E redundantly uses both at least and more, and it incorrectly links the singular verb was with the plural subject others.
