    Ron intends to spend 15% more on gasoline despite a 25% price increase. To keep his spending at 15% more, he should reduce his gasoline quantity by 12.5%. Erica's wages are used to compare Robin and Charles's wages. Robin earns 30% more than Erica, while Charles earns 60% more. Charles's wages are 30% more than Robin's. Party R received 132,000 votes. Party D received 12% more votes than Party R. Party D received 168,000 votes, 12% more than Party R's 132,000 votes, so Party D won the election by 168,000 - 132,000 = 36,000 votes.
