Badly worded question

[mcampbell]

The question is:

> A company is planning to launch an Amazon EC2 instance with an attached EBS volume in a default configuration. You will only be charged for the EBS storage in which instance state?

I think the “only” is misplaced, given the discussion of the answer. What you were trying to ask is, “You will be charged only for the EBS storage in which instance state?” Putting only where you have it means “only charged”, when you mean “only EBS”.

You certainly WILL be charged for EBS when the state is Running.

I think the correction is not an improvement.

The best wording is, “You will be charged for the EBS storage in only which instance state?”
