1.Question: In which year was Rahul born ?
Statements:
Rahul at present is 25 years younger to his mother.
Rahul's brother, who was born in 1964, is 35 years younger to his mother.
A.I alone is sufficient while II alone is notsufficient
B.II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C.Either I or II is sufficient
D.Neither I nor II is sufficient
E.Both I and II are sufficient
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option E

2.Question: What will be the total weight of 10 poles, each of the same weight ?
Statements:
One-fourth of the weight of each pole is 5 kg.
The total weight of three poles is 20 kilograms more than the total weight of two poles.
A.I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
B.II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
C.Either I or II is sufficient
D.Neither I nor II is sufficient
E.Both I and II are sufficient
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
From I, we conclude that weight of each pole = (4x5) kg = 20 kg.
So, total weight of 10 poles = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.
From II, we conclude that:
Weight of each pole = (weight of 3 poles) - (weight of 2 poles) = 20 kg.
So, total weight of 10 poles = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.
3.Question: How many children does M have ?

C.Either I or II is sufficient
D.Neither I nor II is sufficient
E.Both I and II are sufficient
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option E
Explanation:
From I, total sale of product A = Rs. (8000 x 25) = Rs. 200000.
This implies that sale of product A is the total sale of the company, which is Rs. 200000.
5.Question: The last Sunday of March, 2006 fell on which date ?
