    Direction: Each of the following questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provide in the statements are sufficient to answer the question.
    How is 'cost' written in the given code language?
    I. In the code language 'tell me the cost' is coded a '@ 0 # 9' and 'cost was very high' is coded as '& 6 # 1'.
    II. In the code language 'some cost was discount' is code as '187#' and 'some people like discount' is coded a '875%'.
    Give answer

    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 Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question

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

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

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] From Statement I, tell me the cost \[\to \]@ 0 # 9 cost was very high \[\to \]& \[\overline{6}\] # 1 cost \[\to \]#
    From Statement II,
    some cost was discount\[\to \]1 8  7 #
    some people like discount \[\to \]8  7 5 %
    some discount = 8 7 and cost \[\to \]either 1 or #
    Thus, we can get the code of ‘cost’ from Statement I only. Hence, data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question.
