Question from Ken, a parent: Al and I have 10 computers on a shelf 10 Team Members came passing by Each took a computer off the shelf, |
Ken,
How about this?
Al and I have 10 computers on a shelf.
...who cares about Al and you? There are 10 computers on a shelf.10 Team Members came passing by.
...but they don't really matter. Maybe it was 8 or 16, I don't know.Each took a computer off the shelf
..."Each" is the name of a person. If the person's name was Beth, you'd realize that it leaves 9 computers still on the shelf.
