Hello all,

I am just wondering if I've officially lost it due to studying too long or if there is an error for example 10 Data Interpretation on page 145 in the 11th OG?

The question asks "How many people are 44 years old or younger?"

Unless I'm losing it, shouldn't the answer be obtained from adding 63,376 and 43,845? (the numbers from the 17yrs and under and the 18-44 age group. Not by adding 63,376 and 86,738-which is the 17yrs and under and the 45-64 age group as stated in the OG.

Any confirmation of this would be appreciated.

no, you're definitely losing it :D

my table reads:

>17 -- 63,376
18<age<44 -- 86,738

you're getting the concept right; under 17 + 18-44, but you're reading the table wrong.
