Greta’s salary was x thousand dollars per year, then she received a y% raise. Annika’s salary was y thousand dollars per year, then she received an x% raise. x and y are positive integers.
Quantity A : The dollar amount of Greta’s raise
Quantity B : The dollar amount of Annika’s raise
The answer says C, as we know x% of y == y% of x
but,
I thought the answer was D. Please correct me where I am wrong.
If x = 30 and y = 10
x+y% raise = 30 + 10% = 33
y+x% raise = 10 + 30% = 13.
I can also do this for x=200 and y=2
200+2% raise = 202
2 + 200% raise = 6
