  • B. II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
  • C. Either I or II is sufficient
  • D. Neither I nor II is sufficient
  • E. Both I and II are sufficient

ANSWER KEY:
1(E)Explanation:
From I, total sale of product A = Rs. (8000 x 25) = Rs. 200000.
From II, we know that the company deals only in product A.
This implies that sale of product A is the total sale of the company, which is Rs. 200000.

2(C)Explanation:
From I, we conclude that weight of each pole = (4x5) kg = 20 kg.
So, total weight of 10 poles = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.
From II, we conclude that:
Weight of each pole = (weight of 3 poles) - (weight of 2 poles) = 20 kg.
So, total weight of 10 pojes = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.

3(D)Explanation:
From I, we conclude that H is the only daughter of M. But this does not indicate that M has no son. The information given in II is immaterial.

4(E)Explanation:Clearly, the birthday of Gautam's mother can be found out from II and then Gautam's birthday can be determined using the fact given in I.

5(E)Explanation:
In I and II, the common word is 'is' and the common code word is 'ke'. So, 'ke' is the code for 'is'.

6 (A)Explanation:
From I, we conclude that since none of A and D is the heaviest and each one of B, E and F is lighter than both A and D, so C is the heaviest.

7(E).Solution :Let the tens and unit digits be X and Y respectively.
Then,
From statement I, we have: X-Y = 3 ...(1)
From statement II, we have: (X+Y) = 3+4 = 7...(2)
Adding (1) and (2), we get 2X = 10 => X = 5
Putting X value in (1) or (2), we get: Y = 2
Required two digit number is 52.
Here the data in both Statements I and II together are necessary to find the answer,Hence the answer is option E.

8( B)Solution :
Let the tens and unit digits be X and Y respectively.
Statement I do not give the answer.
From statement II, we have:
(X+Y) = 5(X-Y)
(X+Y) = 5X-5Y
4X = 6Y
X/Y = 6/4 = 3/2
Therefore the required ratio = X/Y = X:Y = 3:2
Here, the data in Statement II alone are sufficient to find the answer, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient.
Hence the answer is option B.

9(E)Explanation:From both I and II, we find that the number of cards sold this year = (2935 x 1.2) = 3522.

10(C)Explanation:From I, we conclude that Divya's mother is Shaloo's aunt or Divya is Shaloo's cousin.Now, Divya's grandfather's only child is Divya's parent. So, from II, we conclude that Shaloo and Divya are daughters of the same parents i.e. Divya is Shaloo's sister.
