Data Sufficiency

A group of five friends have $87 dollars between them. Each one only has bills, that is, whole dollar amounts, no coins. Dolores has $29: does she have the most money of the five of them?
Statement #1: Three of the friends are tied for the median value, and one has two dollars less.
Statement #2: Two of the friends, Andie and Betty, have $30 between them, and each has more than $5 herself.

Some problems on the GMAT Quant section can not be solved with formulas or with algebra. Anything you can memorize simply not enough. You need to wrestle with the the number properties themselves.

Dear Gaj81,
I'm happy to respond.
The second statement is that Andie & Betty together have $30, and of those two people, Andie and Betty, neither one has less than $5. In other words, the split (A = $28 & B = $2) is not possible, because we know B > 5 and A > 5.
Does all this make sense?
