    Rabi, my guess is that the reason it’s not B is that it just says that the population was “one fourth”…..but it doesn’t say one fourth of what….one forth of 100 people? one forth of the level in 1900?

    The Answer is E. But I am disspointed to see that the question was very simple . All the options except the correct one contains the obious flaws. This is not really a GMAT standard question.
