If you have two enclosures on the first endorsement and three enclosures on the second endorsement, what number enclosure will start on the third endorsement?

• A. 4
• B. 5
• C. 6
• D. 7

Answer: (C)

The pattern is sequential numbering: each endorsement uses the next set of consecutive numbers. Start at 1 and assign as many numbers as there are enclosures on that endorsement. The first endorsement has two enclosures, so it uses numbers 1 and 2. The second endorsement has three enclosures, so it takes the next three numbers: 3, 4, and 5. The third endorsement begins with the next number after 5, which is 6. So the starting enclosure number for the third endorsement is 6.
