  1. B


  2. Actually country "C" has least equal income distribution between its population, then goes country "A" and most even distribution from this list has country "B".

    .... Q% .... A ....... B ........ C

    .... 20 ..... 8.5 .... 10.2 ..... 2.3

    .... 20 .... 10.1 ... 15.2 ..... 6.1

    .... 20 .... 12.5 ... 18.3 .... 12.3

    .... 20 .... 15.1 ... 23.1 .... 18.1

    .... 20 .... 53.8 ... 33.2 .... 61.2

    .∑.100 .... 100 .... 100 .... 100

    This conclusion obviosly comes from the fact that last (richest) part of income-gainers (20% of population) for country "C" has highest share of income (61.2% from total), and poorest 20% get only 2.3% of all income.
