The correct answer is A, smaller than the size you started with. Because you increased the size by 30% of the original page, and then took 30% of the larger page, you're taking more away than you increased it by. For instance, if you had a page that was 60 units², and you increased it by 30% (18 units), you would get 78 units². However, if you took 30% of 78 (23.4) and subtracted it, you would get 54.6 units², which is smaller than 60 units².
