ExplanationWithout doing the exact computation, you can see that 54 percent of 360 is greater than \(\frac{1}{2}\) of 360, which is 180, and 180 is greater than Quantity B, 150. Thus, the correct answer is Choice A, Quantity A is greater.

Can questions *this* simple actually appear in the GRE? I mean I have seen some very straightforward ones but this just takes the cake.

Well, could be. Very simple questions appear on the GMAT, even though on a really low score range and on OG, then why they might not appear on GRE....... Regards

this question can be solved without doing any computation.
50% (i.e. 1/2) of 360 is 180 which is greater than 150. so 54% is ofcourse greater than 150.
thus Quantity A is greater.

50% of 360 = 180 So, 54% of 360 is greater than 180 We get: QUANTITY A: Some number that's greater than 180 QUANTITY B: 150 Answer: A Cheers, Brent
