Each of the questions given below consists of a statement and / or a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement(s) is / are sufficient to answer the given question. Read the both statements and
- Give answer (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.
- Give answer (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.
- Give answer (C) if the data either in Statement I or in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
- Give answer (D) if the data even in both Statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
- Give answer(E) if the data in both Statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.

Answer: Option E Explanation: Given : S.I. = Rs. 50. I gives, R = 10% p.a. II gives, T = 10 years.
Thus, I and II together give the answer.

Answer: Option E Explanation: Let the sum be Rs. x. I gives, S.I. = Rs. 7000 and T = 7 years. II gives, Sum + S.I. for 5 years = 2 x Sum Now, S.I. for 7 years = Rs. 7000.
Thus, I and II both are needed to get the answer.

Answer: Option E Explanation: Let the rate be R% p.a. I gives, P = Rs. 8000 and T = 4 years. II gives, S.I. = Rs. (8800 - 8000) = Rs. 800.
Thus, I and II both are needed to get the answer.

Answer: Option D Explanation:
Now, I gives, S.I. = Rs. 4000. II gives, T = 4 years. But, P is unknown. So, we cannot find R. So, given data is insufficient to get R.
