Hi, E sums up the fact that L states as a premise of his argument. The claim is that the lowest quintiles average incomes grew by a faster rate than that of the highest quintile.

M doesn't actually dispute this fact. M agrees explicitly in his second sentence that average income increased by a greater percentage, but disputes that this indicates that they become more prosperous relative to the rich.
