a: if 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.
b: if the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
c: if the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.

How many kilometers did Karan drive today ?
I. Karan correctly mentions that he drove less than 20 km but more than 14 km today.
II. Karan’s friend correctly mentions that Karan drove more than 10 km but less than 16 km today.
I. Karan correctly mentions that he drove less than 20 km but more than 14 km today.
=> Distance travelled by Karan can be = 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 km
II. Karan’s friend correctly mentions that Karan drove more than 10 km but less than 16 km today.
=> Distance travelled by Karan can be = 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 km
Clearly each statement alone is insufficient, but if we combine both statements, we get a common distance, i.e. 15 km
$$\therefore$$ Both statements together are sufficient.
=> Ans - (E)
