In February Wilson’s earnings were 40 percent of his family’s total income. In March Wilson earned 25 percent less than in February. If the rest of his family’s income was the same in both months, then, in March, Wilson’s earnings were approximately what percent of his family’s total income? Choose the correct choice from the following options:
A) 15 %	B) 17 %	C) 24 %	D) 30 %	E) 33 %

Rationale: "lets suppose the total family income in feb = 100 x wilson ' s earning in feb = 40 % of 100 x = 40 x earnings of remaining family in feb = 100 x - 40 x = 60 x wilson ' s earning in march = 75 % of wilson ' s feb earnings = 75 % of 40 x = 30 x earnings of remaining family in march = earnings of remaining family in feb = 60 x thus wilson ' s earning as % of total family income in march = 30 x / ( 30 + 60 ) x = 30 x / 90 x = 33.33 % thus answer is e"
