Archit3110 · Answer

Sajjad1994 
OE says that "-The U.S. had  two different  insurance divisions."
but the question asked "No country had  more than two  divisions of the same type."

how can this be false? shouldn't this be true? am I missing something?

Sajjad1994 · Answer

I think you have answered it yourself.

The statement in the question give something opposite and hence it is wrong.

No country had  more than two  divisions of the same type.

How this statement can be correct when US has two divisions?

TenthCentury · Answer

when we attempted this question in competition mode, it was showing - 
No country had more than  two divisions   of the same type.

But now, in the question it is showing - 
No country had more than   one division  of the same type.

is there any change in the question?

Archit3110 · Answer

Yes there seems to have been a change done now.. I had raised the same concern that OE is different to what question had asked...
