Solution
The correct option is D If the data in both the statements together are needed. From Statement I, we know that Robert read 23×300 = 200 pages before Sunday. this means he was left with 100more pages to read.
From Statement II, we know that he read the last 40 pages on Monday.
From I and II, we can conclude that he must have read 100−40 = 60 pages on Sunday.
so both Statements are required to answer the question.
