Let's say that the lowest-paid employee at Company X made $20,000 last year, and the highest-paid made $50,000 last year; that fulfills the range of $30,000. If every employee makes 10% more this year, the lowest-paid will make $22,000, and the highest-paid will make $55,000. $55,000 - $22,000 = $33,000, giving us a range of $33,000. This works with any set of numbers; you can do the same thing if the lowest-paid made $50,000 and the highest-paid made $80,000: $88,000 - $55,000 = $33,000. C is the correct answer.jainrahul1985 wrote:Last year the range of the annual salaries of the 100 employees at Company X was $30,000.
