Do you get it now? A smaller portion of what is already given cannot be a larger number...so that is a dead giveaway. But usually when it is in this format, it is half of the given number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah I think its B

OpenStudy (hanner_b_nanner):

OOHHHH, DUHH! I totally skipped over the fact that it was half of 6 and 4!

OpenStudy (hanner_b_nanner):
