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

  1. What will be the area of a plot in sq. metres?
    I. The length of that plot is 113 times the breadth of that plot.
    II. The diagonal of that plot is 30 metres.
    1. 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.
    2. 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.
    3. If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.
    4. If the data even in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.
    5. None of these
Correct Option: E

From statement I , The length of that plot = 113 x the breadth of that plot
⇒ L = 113B
Where , L = length of plot and B = breadth of plot
From statement II , The diagonal of that plot = 30 metres
Combining statements (I) and (II),
l2 + b2 = 9000

25b2 + b2 = 900
9

∴ b = 15 m and l = 25 m
∴ Area = 375 m2
