题目
In a certain country, the total weight of recycled newspapers increases annually by 0.79 million tons.
Quantity A
Percent increase in the weight of recycled newspapers in 1989 over 1988
Quantity B
Percent increase in the weight of recycled newspapers in 1990 over 1989
选项
C.The two quantities are equal.
D.The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
解析
假设1988年回收的报纸量为100万吨,1989年相比1988年的增长率为:\frac{1.79-1}{1}×100=79
随后,1990年相比1989年的增长率为:\frac{2.58-1.79}{1.79}×100=44
因此,79>44,A项数值更大!
