THe OA in the previous thread is E. I myself don't like this question. All choice are awful. I came down to C & B. C is like a restate of the statement. B is right yes but it sound nonsense. _________________ "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you'r gonna get" Senior Manager Joined: 25 Dec 2003 Posts: 359 Location: India Followers: 1 Kudos [?]: 37 [0], given: 0 ### Show Tags 26 Sep 2004, 07:50 So, what is the final asnwer for this one ?.

>>Wrong

B. Some households in Merton county have an annual income between $40,000 and$60,000.
>>Poor but that is the only "conclusion" we can pick here.

C. The number of households with an annual income of more than $40,000 is greater in Merton than in Sommer county. >> copy/paste from the statement D. Average annual household income is higher in Sommer than in Merton county. >>Wrong E. The percentage of households with an annual income of$80,000 is higher in Sommer than in Merton county
>>Wrong

IMO B is better than C

I hope this is not an official one...
