Question

Question given below has a problem and two statements I & II. Decide if the information given in the statement is sufficient for answering the problem.
K, R, S and T are four players in the Indian Cricket team. Who is the oldest among them?
I : The total age of K & T together is more than that of S.
Il : The total age of R & K together is less than that of S.

• A. Data in statement I alone is sufficient.
• B. Data in statement II alone is sufficient.
• C. Data in both statements together is sufficient.
• D. Data in both statements together is not sufficient.

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Data in both statements together is not sufficient.

II tells that R and K are younger to S but it does not tell anything about T. When we use data from I it is still not possible to say whether T will be older or S.
$R+K<S;K+T>S$
For eg. if we consider R's age 15,K's age 16 then,
$15+16<33;16+T>33$
Here, T can be $\ge 17$. He can be more than 33 also.
Hence, option 'D' is correct.
