So this question is found in the OG 2016, DS # 20. What keeps throwing me off about this one is that if you try and solve for just W, it is very contradictory. For statement 1, W=2.

It seems to me like it would be because 24 is broken down into a prime set of 2,2,2,3 and 12 and 10 have the components to fill it.
