Nobody's Perfect (Posted on 2019-12-04) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Two editors, Ed and his boss Ada have just finished the proof-reading of a new book prior to its publication.
Working independently, Ed detected 25 errors and Ada ended up only with 19.

Provide your estimate (assume what you may) regarding the quantity of errors still remaining after their inspection.
