How old is Ramesh? (I) Ramesh is 6 years older than his sister. (II) The sister is 14 years old now.
AStatement (I) alone is sufficient
BStatement (II) alone is sufficient
CBoth statements together are sufficient
DEven together not sufficient
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Both statements together are sufficient
1. (I) alone: tells age difference but not the absolute age.
2. (II) alone: only gives the sister's age, not Ramesh's.
3. Together: Ramesh = 14 + 6 = 20. Sufficient.
