I am also struggling with determing the best meaning, since there are many options based upon the wording. Here is an example. I understand the answer. I'd like help and advice on the best approach and the best mindset for attacking this type of problem. For those that need an answer on this one, check out Stacey's awesome explanation here - https://www.beatthegmat.com/sc-t19761.html
