Direction: Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and answer the question.

  1. How many students are there between Suresh and Mohan in a row of 50 students?
    I. Suresh is twelfth from the left end and Mohan is seventeen from the right end.
    II. Suresh is six places away from Jayesh, who is twentieth from the left end.
    1. 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.
    2. if the data in Statements II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
    3. if the data in Statement I alone or in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
    4. if the data in both the Statement I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
    5. if the data in both the Statement I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
Correct Option: A

Using Statement I:
II → Suresh ← 21 → Mohan ← 16
So, there are 21 students between Suresh and Mohan
Using Statement II:
Mohan's name is not even mentioned in the given statement so we cannot find the answer using statement II alone.
