Here minimum wage is 30*40 = 1200 cents = $12.00

Thus ans is (A)

OA = (D) might be a typo
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary" - Steve Jobs

What was the minimum wage increase for a 40-hour week? - (A) $12.00
What was the maximum wage increase for a 40-hour week? - (D) $35.00

So, either the question is wrong OR the OA is incorrect.

Ok good. That's what I thought. Im glad Im not going crazy. I copied and pasted this from an old GMAT exam, so there's no error on my part. Thanks
