Critical Reasoning (CR) | Re: Among the more effective kinds of publicity that a traveling

I have one question with A.

Say if there are 1000 viewers of whom,
The number of people for whom seeing one act from the show performed on television is an adequate substitute for seeing the show = 499
The number for whom seeing one act from the show on television stimulates a desire to see the show performed live = 501

here 499 is still smaller than 501, but little less than 50%, how does it strengthen?

I eliminated A, because of this reason, any thoughts?
