Division A earned £550m and Division B £190m. How much more did A earn?

A305
B398
C190
D360
E740
Worked solution

Read both values, then subtract one from the other to get the gap — don't add them. The correct answer is 360. Traps to avoid: 305 comes from the "misread value" error; 398 comes from the "misread value" error; 190 comes from the "read one value" error; 740 comes from the "added not subtracted" error.
