I was wondering if you could help me with a question that I have in a book?
Two separate circuits are run in the same nonmetallic conduit. One circuit consists of size 8 awg copper insulated conductors protected at 50 amps, and the other circuit run with size 3 copper conductors protected at 100 amps. One copper equipment grounding conductor is run in this conduit to serve both circuits. The min. size equipment grounding conductor permitted is:
A. 10 awg
b. 8 awg
c. 6 awg
d. 4 awg
e. 3 awg

So therefore I think I am in the right spot, table 250.66 note 1, the answer would be B. 8 AWG. Would this be correct?
