Answer 1

The correct option is B

If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question

From I, we conclude that 5${}^{th}$, 12${}^{th}$, 19${}^{th}$ and 26${}^{th}$ of March, 2006 were Sundays. So, the last Sunday fell on 26${}^{th}$. From II, we conclude that 31${}^{st}$ March, 2006 was Friday. Thus, 26${}^{th}$ March, 2006 was the last Sunday of the month.
