Because Elaine is the constant one… So any difference must be the difference betweeen Fiona and Gregory.

Thus 48 simply shows that Gregory has 48 bookmarks more than Fiona.

Hi

The answer is 55.

A neat way is to use MD.

Another way is to plug in some numbers.

Start with bus X having 85 passengers and bus Y having 50 passengers.

Now move 45 passengers from bus X to bus Y.

We have 40 passengers in bus X and 95 passengers in bus Y.

This gives us a difference of 55 passengers.

If you need the MD, please let me know, I'll do it later.

Best wishes
