A quote from a passage:
"The World bank estimates that removing current agricultural distortions would produce a general benefit of more than $300 billion a year. Relative to national income, poor countries would enjoy a third more of this benefit than rich, industrialized ones."
One of the questions on the passage:
It can be inferred that a removal of agricultural distortions would provide gains to poor countries of approximately:
(A) $300 million per year
(B) $500 million per year
(C) $100 billion per year
(D) $300 billion per year
(E) $500 billion per year
Answer according to the solution is C, which doesn't make sense if it says "a third MORE of this benefit than rich, industrialized ones." Am I reading the passage wrong?
Thanks
