- D. If the data in both the Statements I and II are not sufficient to answer the question
- Correct Answer
- If the data in either Statement I alone or in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question
ExplanationFrom Statement I,
Total weight of Arun, Suraj and Vinay = 3 x Average weight = 3 x 68 kg
? Arun's weight = 3 x 68 - (78 + 46) = 80 kg
Now, total weight of Raju and Pradeep = 2 x 72 = 144 kg
? Pratap's weight = 144 - 68 = 76 kg
? Second highest weight = 78 kg
(Suraj's weight)
From statement II,
Total weight of Arun, Suraj, Vinay and Raju = 4 x 68 = 272 kg
? Arun's weight = 272 - (78 + 68 + 46)
? Arun's weight = 272 - 192 = 80 kg
? Second highest weight = 78 kg (Suraj's weight) - 1. The re are six letter W, A, R, S, N, aad E. Is 'answer'the word formed after performing the following operations using these six letter only?

Correct Answer: if the data in all the Statement I,II and III together are necessary to answer the question
Explanation:
if the data in all the Statement I,II and III together are necessary to answer the question
Correct Answer: if the data in all the Statement I, II and III together are necessary to answer the question
Explanation:
The data given both the Statement I, II and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
Correct Answer: if the data in all the Statement I, II and III together are necessary to answer the question
Explanation:
The data in Statement I, II and III together are necessary to answer the question .
Correct Answer: If statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Explanation:
From statement I,
E + B < A + D, we easily say that E is less than A, because B>D and as the statement suggest E + B < A + D.
? E < A.
? A is not the smallest integer.
Statement I is sufficient to answer.
From statement II, D < F
This statement is not sufficient to find the relation between A and E.
Correct Answer: Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Explanation:
Statement I alone is sufficient.
Statement II alone is not sufficient, for we can have more then one value of MN possible.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
As per given above statements , we have
Let, the price of 1 dozen oranges, 1 dozen banana and 1 dozen apples be x, y and z, respectively.
I. Price of 2 dozen oranges and 1 dozen banana = $110
? 2x + y = 110
II. Price of 3 dozen apples and 1 dozen banana = $170
? 3z + y = 170
III. Price of 1 dozen oranges and 1 dozen apples = $95
? x + z = 95
we find the price of 1 dozen oranges .So, by combining all, we get the values of x = 45.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
None of the statements give the amount of labelled price or SP. So, even by combining all the statements together, question cannot be answered.
Hence ,we cannot find the amount of profit earned because all the above given information are not sufficient .
Correct Answer: II and III only
Explanation:
From above given statement , we can see that
I. Perimeter of the rectangular hall = 2 ( length + breadth ) = 76 m
? 2 ( L + B ) = 76
? L+ B = 38
II. Area of the hall = 336 m2
? length x breadth = 336 m2
III. Cost of flooring per square metre = $550.
Combining (II) and (III),
Total cost = Area of the hall x Cost of flooring per square metre
= 336 × 550 = $184800.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Only I and II
