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 Read both the statements and give answer
-
A, B and C are integers. Is B an even number?
I. (A + B) is an odd number.
II. (C + B) is an odd number.
-
- If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
- 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
- If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
- If the data even in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
- If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
Correct Option: D
According to question ,
I. A + B is odd ⇒ If A is an even number then B will be an odd number and vice versa.
II. C + B is odd ⇒ if B is an even number then C will be an odd number and vice versa.
So, even by combining the two statements together, we are not able to say that B is an even integer.
