Direction: are followed by two statements labeled I and II. You have to decide if these statements are sufficient to conclusively answer the question. Choose the appropriate answer from options given below:
-
A, B, C, D, E and F are six integers such that E < F, B > A, A < D < B. C is the greatest integer. Is A the smallest integer?
I. E + B < A + D
II. D < F
-
- If statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
- If statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
- If statement I and statement II together are sufficient but neither of the alone is sufficient to answer the question.
- if either statement I or statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
- Both statement I and statement II are insufficient to answer the question.
Correct Option: A
From statement I,
E + B < A + D, we easily say that E is less than A, because B>D and as the statement suggest E + B < A + D.
∴ E < A.
∴ A is not the smallest integer.
Statement I is sufficient to answer.
From statement II, D < F
This statement is not sufficient to find the relation between A and E.
