Each question below is followed by two statements A and B You are to determine whether the data given in the statement is sufficient for answering the question You should use the data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answer
Give answer a)If the statement A alone is sufficient to answer the question but the statement B alone is not sufficient.
Give answer b)If the statement B alone is sufficient to answer the question but the statement A alone is not sufficient
Give answer c)If both statement A and B together are needed to answer the question
Give answer d)If either the statement A alone or statement B alone is sufficient to answer the question
Give answer e)If you cannot get the answer from the statement A and B together but need even more data
What is a three-digit number ?
A.Three-fifths of that number is less by 90 of that number.
B.One-fourth of that number is 25% of the number
Let's assume the number to be x.
x-(3/5)x= 90
(2/5)x=90
x=225
We get the number from statement A itself
However data in statement B is insufficient for finding out the number.
Hence option A is correct.
