21) If Jeff and Jimmy have less than 22 dollars between them, and Jeff has 8 dollars, which of the following could be the number of dollars that Jimmy has?

1. 12
2. 14
3. 16

1. I only
2. III only
3. I & III.
4. I & II
5. Neither I, II, nor III are correct.

The easiest way to do this problem is to subtract Jeff's money from the total of the money that Jimmy and Jeff have.

Doing this gives you 22 - 8 = 14. However, the problem states that they have LESS THAN 22 dollars. Therefore, Jimmy must have less than 14 dollars, Of I, II, and III, the only value that is less than 14 is I.
