C.
Either I or II is sufficient
D.
Neither I nor II is sufficient
E.
Both I and II are sufficient
Answer

Answer: Option E

Solution

Answer: Option E
Solution:
From II, we can conclude that (1500 * 3) = 500 boxes were sold on Sunday.
Thus, from I, we find that number of boxes sold on Monday = 500 + 10% of 500 = 550.
