Question: How much was the total sale of the company ?
Statements:
- The company sold 8000 units of product A each costing Rs. 25.
- This company has no other product line.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
From I, total sale of product A = Rs. (8000 x 25) = Rs. 200000.
From II, we know that the company deals only in product A.
This implies that sale of product A is the total sale of the company, which is Rs. 200000.

Statement 2 alone is not sufficient to answer the above question because we do not get any estimate of the data hence we can not calculate the actual earning while the combination of both the statement can provide a feasible solution. Hence A is correct.
