Difficulty: Medium
Correct Answer: Statement I alone is sufficient; Statement II alone is not sufficient.
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:Identify a weekday from range and parity constraints.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:Use parity information in I to isolate a single day.
Step-by-Step Solution:
From I alone: Tuesday is uniquely determined.From II alone: three possible days remain; insufficient.Verification / Alternative check:If one numbers days differently, parity could change; however, the conventional numbering (Mon=1) is standard for such DS problems and is implied by the typical 'odd/even day' phrasing.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:Including Thursday in I's range ('before Thursday' excludes Thursday); misinterpreting 'odd day' without a day index convention.
Final Answer:Statement I alone is sufficient; Statement II alone is not sufficient. (Tuesday)
