Solution

The correct option is D Either Statement I or Statement II is sufficient
From I, we conclude that the weight of each book = (4x2) kg = 8 kg.
So, total weight of 10 books = (8x 10) kg = 80 kg.

From II, we conclude that:
Weight of each book = (weight of 3 books) - (weight of 2 books) = 8 kg.
So, total weight of 10 books = (8 x 10) kg = 80 kg.
