On the night our play-off was being held, a number of vehicles were in the east parking

lot of the gym. Half of the white vehicles were neither cars nor buses. There were 8 buses
in all, and only 1 of those was yellow. There were 16 other yellow vehicles, though, and 6
of those were cars. Out of a total of 20 cars, 9 cars were not yellow or white. There were
as many white buses as there were busses that were not white. Besides cars and buses, of
course, there were vans and trucks. How many white vehicles were there?

Answer:

Explanation:

They are in the east parking lot of the gym. ✓

Half of the white vehicles aren't either buses or cars. ✓

There are 8 buses in total. ✓

Only 1 bus is yellow. ✓

There are 16 other yellow vehicles excluding buses, 6 of them are cars so the other 10 are probably a different vehicle. ✓

There are 20 cars in total. ✓

9 of those cars are not yellow or white. So 11 are possibly yellow or white ✓

There are as many white buses as there are buses that aren't white, There are 8 buses in total so 4 white and 1 bus yellow the other 3 could be a different color. ✓

There are vans and trucks, and remember Half of the white vehicles aren't either buses or cars so, those are white too. smh. ✓

That's all I have right now
