Bill‟s answer can be best explained on the assumption that he has interpreted Ann‟s remark to mean that
(A) most of the campers at Camp Lakemont come from high schools other than TriCities
(B) most Tri-Cities High School students are campers at Camp Winnehatchee
(C) some Tri-Cities High School students have withdrawn from Camp Lakemont
(D) all Tri-Cities High School students have withdrawn from Camp Lakemont
(E) only campers at Camp Winnehatchee are students at Tri-Cities High School
let us assume that camers at camp winnehatchee = 100 and all 100 go to tri cities high school
bill say not true some campers (e.g20) are from camp lake mount.
but ann never says campers of any other location go to tri cities hgh school.
so bill thinks ann says all are from camp winnehatchee.
