Answer
Correct Answer: Both statements together are not sufficient
Explanation
Introduction / Context:We need Supriya’s exact age.
Reasoning:
- I: S = P + 3 (S = Supriya, P = Priya). Infinite possibilities without absolute values.
- II: P : R = 3 : 4 (R = Reshma). No link to S or absolute ages.
- I + II: Still no absolute age; the pair gives only relations, not totals.
Final Answer:Both statements together are not sufficient.
