Daniel will not going to get a bag

why?

lets read the statement, a part of it

person who donates more than $5 to charity

the key word here is more,

daniel donates exact 5 dollars,

so he will not get a bag

Courtney cant get a bag, because she donates even less,

to get a bag you need to donate, according to the statement , 5 dollars or more,

so for example, you need to donate 5.01 dollars to get a bag
