Directions (6-10):
Each question below is followed by two statements I and II. You are to determine whether the data given in the statement is sufficient to answer the question.
You should use the data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answers.
Give answer-
(1) If the question can be answered by using statement I alone but cannot be answered by statement II alone.
(2) If the question can be answered by using statement II alone but cannot be answered by statement I alone.
(3) If both statements I and II together are required to answer the question.
(4) If the answer can be found by using any of the two statements alone.
(5) If both the statements together are not sufficient to answer the question.

Solutions (1-5):
1. (3)
2. (2)
3. (2)
4. (5)
5. (3) Ratio =24/16= 3 : 2
Solutions (6-10)
6. 3; Both statements are required for answer.
SP = 12000, Profit = 20%
Cost Price = 1000 ie profit = 2000
Total profit = 2000 × 20 = 40000
7. 3; From statement I:
x = 4y ...(i)
From statement II:
x – 5 = 7(y – 5)
7y – x = 30 ...(ii)
Solving equations (i) and (ii), x = 40, y = 10
8. 5; Data is not sufficient to find the answer.
9. 4; Both statements alone are sufficient to answer.
Let be speed = v, distance = x, time = t
t = x/v ...(i)
From statement I:
x/5v/4=t – 20
4x/5v= t – 20
x/v = 5/4(t – 20) ...(ii)
From (i) and (ii), t = 5 / 4(t – 20)
4t = 5t – 100
t = 100 seconds
From statement II:
x / v / 2 = t + 100
2x / v = t + 100
t + 100 = 2t
t = 100 seconds
10. 3; Both statements are required to answer the question.
From statement I:
1/v = 10 seconds (1 = length, v = speed)
From statement II:
v = 10 m/sec
1 = 10 × v = 100 m
