Either I or II is sufficient
D.

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
From I, we have: number of employees who opted for VRS = 18% of 950 + 6% of 1100 = 171 + 66 = 237.
From II, we cannot get the required answer until and unless the number of employees in age-group 51 to 56 and other age-groups is known.
