Solution Steps

Step 1: Determine Wayne's Gross Revenue in Quarter 3

Wayne's gross revenue in Quarter 2 is $80,000. His revenue dropped by 20% in Quarter 3. \[ \text{Drop in revenue} = 80,000 \times 0.20 = 16,000 \] \[ \text{Wayne's revenue in Quarter 3} = 80,000 - 16,000 = 64,000 \]

Step 2: Determine Pam's Gross Revenue in Quarter 3

Pam's gross revenue in Quarter 2 is $67,000. Her revenue dropped by $3,000 in Quarter 3. \[ \text{Pam's revenue in Quarter 3} = 67,000 - 3,000 = 64,000 \]

Step 3: Compare Wayne's and Pam's Gross Revenue in Quarter 3

Both Wayne and Pam have the same gross revenue in Quarter 3. \[ \text{Wayne's revenue in Quarter 3} = 64,000 \] \[ \text{Pam's revenue in Quarter 3} = 64,000 \]

Both were equal
