Is x greater than y?

I. x is greater than 200.

II. y is greater than 190.

A 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 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 The data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question.

D The data even in both the statements I and II together not sufficient to answer the question.

E The data in both the statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.

Solution

Correct Answer: Option D

From statement I,

x > 200

Since there is no data given about y

Thus, the data in Statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question

From statement II,

y > 190

Since there is no data given about x

Thus, the data in Statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question

Combining I and II,

x> 200

y> 190

Even on combination of these statements, relation cannot be established because there are few value of y smaller than x and few values greater than x.

Thus, the data even in both the statements I and II together II alone not sufficient to answer the question.
