<p>At a certain hospital, 89 children were born in the month of June. If more children were born on the fifteenth of June than on any other day in June, what is the least number of children that could have been born on the fifteenth of June?</p>

<p>The only question I missed.. and I don't even know where to start.. depressing 2 days before the actual test. Anyone help?</p>

<p>Also..from June 08... what's the official SAT meaning of the word "interior"-did that get settled?</p>

2

<p>31 days.. Times two..62days.... So every day there's either 2or 3kids born so there has to be 4 on that day.. I think</p>

3

<p>The answer IS 4..but can you explain some more?? And doesn't june have 30 days?</p>

4

<p>^It doesn't matter if it's 28-31. The result is the same.</p>

5

<p>So since 30x2 <89 and 30x3>89.. 2-3 kids were born every day (approximate), and so the least number must be 4 for the fifteenth? Is that correct reasoning or no?</p>

6

<p>That is correct.</p>
