Logic Question.

Or the answer is 55, like it says, and you're overthinking it.



18+28+8 = 54 + 1 person who was purely private scholarship = 55.

Never rule out semantic traps. It didn't ask how many received financial aid as worded, it asked how many of them were on scholarships.

this, the more you would be able to know would be the maximum "possible" number of people that didn't use any scholarships, also:

Find out how many students use at least one type of scholarship.

i c wut he did tharr

which is the only thing i could really figure xD didn't notice the fact that they only mentioned 55 scholarship, and the rest wasn't scholarships.
so i guess that makes the answer 55? it would truly make this a "logic" question instead of a math one
