Hi Riya,

Meaning of the sentence:

The Federalist papers which are

  1. a strong defense of the United States Constitution
  2. important as a body of work in political science

represent the handiwork of three different authors

Option B clearly and concisely brings out the intended meaning.

Option A – subject verb mismatch in papers and represents

Option C – is representing is incorrect tense

Option D and E – The construction of the sentence is completely off

Hope this helps!
