Let the same amount of money spent on the computer C or Computer D is $x, and the price for computer C is c, Price for computer D is d. find [(c-x)- (d-x)] /(d-x)
Simplify what is being asked as: (c-d)/(d-x)
1) c=1.15d but information is given about x, so insufficient;
2) d-x=300 is given, but what about c-d? not sufficient
1)+2): (c-d)/(d-x)=0.15d/300, no information about d is given, so answer E.
以上不当之处, 欢迎指正!
PS: 我自己做题时选了 C 项, 因为当时有点儿着急赶时间, 所以疏忽了检查细节,想当然地认为(d-x)已经给出了, 没仔细看分子。 希望有可能跟我犯同样错误地G友们引以为戒!
