isn't it E the correct one?

either asking ----- parallel to ---- or thanking


while TO HEAL is much better than IN HEALING


in healing doesnt need to be parallel with asking, i think that's the trick

i m not mother tongue, but should not be parallel as the second part "almost wholly ...." is not beginning with something that refers to the subject as THAT (in the first part) and WHOSE (in the third one)

correct answer should be E

but as said, i m not mother tongue

x>-y is not sufficient, hence A.

250 (what she needs) - 100 (what she has) = 150 $ (what she still needs)

after 4 weeks she has 140$ 35*4=140
so she needs one week more to arrive at 150, hence 5 weeks

The full tank is always the same.
To find how big is the tank is MILES/CONSUMPTION, hence

462 miles / (x+ 6) miles per gallons = 336 miles / x miles per gallons

462x = 336 (x+6)
462x=336x + 2016
126x=2016
x=16

maybe is wrong, but as with 2 chairs out of 5 you get 10 possible combinations and the total combinations are 150, then the combinations of tables must be 15... only 6 gives this possibility.

it took me a while to get to this, any fast solution?
