The correct Answer is:
B

According to the given information:
From (i), we get
Five types of cards `rarr` A, B, C, D and E.
Each type `to` Three cards.
Envelopes `overset(" Colour")rarr` Red, Yellow and Brown.
Each colour `to` Five envelopes.
From (ii), we get
B, D and E type cards `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Red envelopes.
A, B and C type cards `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Yellow envelopes.
C, D and E type cards `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Brown envelopes.
From (iii), we get
Two B-type cards `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Red envelopes.
Two D-type cards `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Red envelopes.
One E-type card `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Red envelopes.
[`because` There are five red envelopes.]
Two remaining E-type cards `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Brown envelopes.
One D-type card `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Brown envelopes.
Two remaining C-type card `overset("Inserted in")rarr` Brown envelopes.
So, one B-type, one C-type and three A-type cards `overset("Inserted in")rarr` yellow envelopes.

By analysing the above table, we get of
`{:("Type of Cards","Number of Cards","Colour of Envelope") ,(C to,2 to,"Brown"),(D to, 1 to ,"Brown"),(E to, 2 to,"Brown"):}`
