标题: [求助] 再请教GWD-10-23

这道题目的链接只看到nn说经讨论答案为D，还没搞懂为什么A中which指代的是前面整句呢？只看nn说根据句意理解，偶怎么理解不出来？

For the first time in the modern era, non-Hispanic Whites are officially a minority in California, which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly there-quarters only a decade ago.

which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters only a decade ago

which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when it was nearly three-quarters

and that amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when they were nearly three-quarters

amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters a decade ago

amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from what it was a decade ago by nearly three-quarters

我的理解，主语应该是Whites，所以which从句不能正确指代中心词，因为后面谓语动词用的是单数；minority不是一个具体概念，不能说minority从3/4降到小于1/2，那10年前就不是少数民族了。

请大家指正！

主语是WHITES没错，但为什么是LESS THAN，而不是FEWER THAN？
