The ages of Anand and Sujeet are in the ratio of 6 : 5. What is the age of Anand? I. The ages of Anand and Sandeep are in the ratio of 10 : 7 . II. After 5 yr, the ratio of Anand's and Sujeet's ages will be 7 : 6 .

Correct Answer: If the Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question but the Statement I alone is not sufficient

Explanation:

From Statement II,
The ratio of their ages after 5 yr is 7 : 6
So, (6k + 5) / (5k + 5) = 7/6
⇒ 36k + 30 = 35k + 35
⇒ 36k - 35k = 35 - 30
⇒ k = 5
∴ Age of anand = 6 x 5 = 30 yr
So, Statement II is alone sufficient.
