    amount spent on a factory-new car has risen 30 per-
    cent in the last five years. In the average household

    average household budget must have increased by
    30 percent over the last five years.

    the argument relies?
    (A)The average number of factory-new cars pur-
    chased per household has remained unchanged

    buying factory-new cars has risen 30 percent in
    the last five years.
    (C)The proportion of the average household budget
    spent on all car-related expenses has remained
    unchanged over the last five years.
    (D)The proportion of the average household budget
    spent on food and housing has remained
