II. G is granddaughter of F, who is married to B. D is daughter of B, who is grandfather of H. E is father of H. E and A are a married couple and H is the niece of D, who is sister of C.

A)  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.

B)  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.

C)  if the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.

D)  if the data in both statement I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.

E)  if the data in both statement I and II together are necessary to answer the question.

Correct Answer: D

Solution :

From I. Thus the gender of C cannot be determined. So, statement I is not sufficient to answer the question. From II. Thus the gender of C cannot be determined. So, statement II is not sufficient to answer. Again, both statement I and II together are also not sufficient to answer the question.
