Respuesta :

I believe the answer is A. clay
The amount of clay alone determine which type of soil it would be according to the Triangle.
At that triangle, we could see that the maximum amount of clay to be considered as 'sandy clay' is 50.
Since the amount of sand surpassed that, it automatically fall into clay type even without having to look to other composition.
