@[HoppyChris:29692] but "50 pounds of steel and coal" could also refer to a collective lump of steel and coal that collectively weighs 50 pounds. Consider this: I have 100 pounds of iron, 50 pounds of steel and coal, and 25 pounds of copper. What does the bit in the middle refer to? Even though the writer has used correct grammar (recognises Oxford Comma), ambiguity remains simply because of "and". |
