A)The quantity in Column A is greater. B)The quantity in Column B is greater. C)The two quantities are equal. D)The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
We can solve this question using matching operations
Given: Quantity A: x + 32y Quantity B: 32x + y
Subtract x from both quantities to get: Quantity A: 32y Quantity B: 31x + y
Subtract y from both quantities to get: Quantity A: 31y Quantity B: 31x
Divide both quantities by 31 to get: Quantity A: y Quantity B: x
Since we have no information about x and y, there's no way to determine which value is greater.
Answer: D
