Of the people who moved from one state to another when they retired, the proportion who retired to SunState has
decreased by 10 percent over the past five years. Since many local businesses in SunState cater to retirees, this
decline is likely to have a noticeably negative economic effect on these businesses. Which of the following, if true,
most seriously weakens the argument?
"¢ SunState attracts more people who move from one state to another when they retire than does any other state.
"¢ There are far more local businesses in SunState that cater to tourists than there are local businesses that cater to
retirees.
"¢ The number of retirees who have moved out of SunState to accept re-employment in other states has increased
over the past five years.
"¢ SunState has lower property taxes than any other state, making the state a magnet for retirees.
"¢ The total number of people who retired and moved to another state for their retirement has increased significantly
over the past five years.

I agree that A can be close but I felt that it was too generic to be the right answer. Eventually I picked (e). One other thing that helped in choosing (e)was pre-phrasing..

Good question -- Another instance of mixing quant with CR.

E in my view

20% of 1000 is definitely greater that 20% of 100. This concept is tested here.
