Correct Answer: if the data in both the Statement I and II are not sufficient to answer the question
Explanation:
From Statement I.
n = W + 6
From Statement II,
p = w + 4
The value of w is not given.
So, exact average can't be determined .
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
From Statement II.
Suppose, side of a square be x.
Hence, x2 = 196
? x = 14 cm
From Statements I and II,
Radius of semi-circle, r = 7 cm
? Circumference of semi-circle
?r = 22/7 x 7 = 22 cm
Hence, both Statement are required .
Correct Answer: if the data in both the Statement I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
Explanation:
Even by using both the statements together we cannot determine whether B has highest number of student or D.
Correct Answer: if the data either in Statement I alone or in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
Explanation:
if the data in Statements II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
I. Raju can take 4 to 8 days to complete the work.
II. Raju can take 8 to 10 days to complete the work.
Using both the statements together we can determine that Raju took 8 days to complete the work.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
Suppose, numbers be x and y.
Statement I. x2 = 9y
Statement II, x/y = 3/4
From both statement, we get
x = 12 and y = 16
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
More data is required.
Correct Answer: I and II
Explanation:
From Statement I,
D + E = 14 x 2 = 28
From Statement II,
A + B + C + D + E + F = 4 x 50 = 200
(A + B + C + D + E + F)/6 = 28 + 200/6
= 228/6 = 38
? Statement I and II are sufficient to answer the question.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
Statement I,
40/100 xx = 20/100 x 50 ? x = 25
Statement II,
30/100 x y = 25/100 x 72 ? y = 60
From both statements,
x : y = 25 : 60 = 5 : 12
Correct Answer: The data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question , while the data in Statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question
Explanation:
From Statement I,
tell me the cost ? @ 0 # 9
cost wase very high ? & 6 # 1
? cost ? #
From Statement II ,
Some cost was discount ? 1 6 7 #
Some people like discount ? 8 7 5 %
? some discount ? 8 7 and cost ? either 1 or #
Thus we can the code of 'cost' from Statement I only.
Hence, data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question.
