• A. The data in statement A alone is sufficient to answer the question.
• B. The data in statement B alone is sufficient to answer the question
• C. The data either in statement A alone or in statement B alone is sufficient to answer the question
• D. The data given in both statements A and B together are not sufficient to answer the question.
• E. The data in both statements A and B together are necessary to answer the question.

Answer 1

The correct option is D The data given in both statements A and B together are not sufficient to answer the question.

$A+B+C+D+E+F=(45000\times 6)=270000$ ..... (i)
From statement A, we get
A + F = 88900 ..... (ii)
From statement B, we get
B + C = 95200 ..... (iii)
From (i), (ii) and (iii) also we cannot find D, because the salary of E is not given.
