In a system designed to work out the tax to be paid:
An employee has £4000 of salary tax free. The next £1500 is taxed at 10%
The next £28000 is taxed at 22%
Any further amount is taxed at 40%
Which of these groups of numbers would fall into the same equivalence class?

a) £4800; £14000; £28000
b) £5200; £5500; £28000
c) £28001; £32000; £35000
d) £5800; £28000; £32000
First slab ends at £4000
Second slab ends at £4000 + £1500 = £5500
Third slab ends at £5500 + £28000 = £33500

So d. will be correct answer as all the given salaries are between 5500 and 33500.

Any comments welcome.
