#greprepclub If the six New England states were ranked by their.jpg [ 90.68 KiB | Viewed 12443 times ]
If the six New England states were ranked by their percentage of the total population of New England in Year X and Year Y , for how many of those states would their rank for Year X be different than their rank for Year Y ?
A. None
B. One
C. Two
D. Three
E. Four
the answer is D.
but I discovered my wrong understanding came from that I understood we have to compare the percent multiplied by the population.
Most of my weaknesses in DI are not understanding the questions well.
So, May someone explain what would be the difference in question if it was the same I understand?
Next, how to improve my understanding to the questions of data intrep. questions ? Ironically, when I practice I got them all right but in the mocks I get them wrong.

The explanation you gave is not making any sense. When you say a shift in the chart, are you referring to the higher or lower than year X? Logically speaking, this isn't making any sense to me.

Hi There!
Let me try helping you on this
Okay, so as we are not given what is the order we can arrange them in an increasing order.
Note: I will be using the first letter of the states to represent them.
Year X: V-Mn-N-R-C-Ms
Year Y:- V-N-R-Mn-C-Ms
The above are arranged in increasing order from lowest to highest, you can arrange them the other way round highest to lowest that wouldn't matter.
Back to the question, from the above, we see that there are three misplaced arrangements
Year X: Mn-N-R
Year Y:- N-R-Mn
Thus, the answer is D.
Hope this helps!

Thank you and that's what I did exactly after Googling for a little bit. I deeply appreciate your assistance with this.
