Q33

Question : How much money do Vivek and Suman have together ? Statements : I. Suman has 20 rupees less than what Tarun has. II. Vivek has 30 rupees more than what Tarun has.

A.
I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B.
II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C.
Either I or II is sufficient
D.
Neither I nor II is sufficient
Answer
E.
Both I and II are sufficient

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
From I, we have: S = T - 20.
From II, we have: V = T + 30.
Thus, from both I and II, we have: V + S = (T + 30) + (T - 20) = (2 T + 10).
So, to get the required amount, we need to know the amount that Tarun has.
