Answer:

How many registered Republicans voted for Gary Johnson in the 2016 presidential election.

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with, a large data set contains information on all registered Republicans in the United State. The crux now is that what information can't be assessed based solely on this data set.

The most plausible answer is, 'how many registered Republicans voted for Gary Johnson in the 2016 presidential election.

For one, from the data set, we are not told on anything that borders on 2016 presidential election. We are only told of a generic data set, one that has no link to an identified election. This particular option had categorically pitched on a 2016 election, whereas we are not clear on that from the data set. Additionally, the introduction of Gary Johnson as being voted for have no semblance with the Republicans data set. The data set is also silent on the candidate the Republicans voted for, hence making this option most feasible.
