Question 5 has to be answered before 4.





Cos you can't answer 4 without making some assumptions.





Cos if the average of 7 arrive at one time and more arrive (above average) then you might eceed the 10 allowed.





If they all arrive one at a time throughout the day then you will probably never exceed the limit.





For the 10 to be full, you are assuming that they are all the same size as 12 small ones may not fill the yard...





So, (a) and (c) are definitely correct for number 5.
