I am not sure; shouldn't the wording be "each of <plural>" to mean "there are/can be more than one, and you look at them one by one and make sure the condition holds for each of them" (oops, that's cyclic explanation and I failed to paraphrase it without using "each of")???

All the others look good.  Thanks.
