Are you sure you've transcribed this question correctly? As written, "... fell percent from its peak in 1968 to its nadir in 1977 by nearly 70" is nonsensical.

Make sure you've typed it correctly, and post the source, and I'll be happy to address this one.

Option E is wrong because, as written, it is nonsensical. The phrase BY NEARLY 70 should precede PERCENT as it is in the correct answer, instead of being loosely tacked onto the end of the sentence. It means nothing to say that something FELL PERCENT.
