Hi,


I was asked for a school project to spot plagiarism but me and my partner don’t agree on 2 quotes.


“Domestic profitability is not a good indication of true international competitive advantage for three important reasons." -student a


"There are three reasons why domestic profitability is not a good indicator of true international competitive advantage." - student b 


I believe it’s plagiarism because they are so similar but have different phrasing. What do you guys do think?


I believe student b plagiarized student a’s text. What do you think

      Hi!

      It is hard to say with only one sentence, but these two sentences are very similar with their phrasing and content!

      If you have any other question, don't hesitate to ask. We'l, be happy to help!

      Laurie :)
