25. Pam and Ed are in a line to purchase tickets. How many people are in the line?
(1) There are 20 people behind Pam and 20 people in front of Ed.
(2) There are 5 people between Pam and Ed.

I set it up as: 20, E, 5, P, 20 = 47
b/c there are 5 people b/w P and E, it can't be P then E.
but OA is E
Sec 4, #25
