I. $$2 \mid a \mid + \mid b \mid = 0$$
II. $$2 \mid a \mid = \mid b \mid$$

A

if the statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.

B

if the statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.

C

if both the statements I and II are sufficient to answer the question but neither statement alone is sufficient.
