Amount arranged for some asylum seekers? (3)
I believe the answer is:
sum
'amount' is the definition.
(I know that amount can be written as sum)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sum that I've seen before include "An additional problem" , "pupils find it a problem" , "Total; problem" , "Amount of money; add" , "Arithmetical problem" .)
