Looking at this question align column with text and numbers it is marked marked as a duplicate.

The original question has been answered. My thought is the derivative question could re-display the accepted answer or at least be tagged as "answered". Logically if the answer is not satisfactory, the second question should not be a duplicate.

Any post marked as a duplicate where the prototype question has an accepted answer, should also be marked as answered by having its answer count repeat the number of accepted answers on the prototype.
