Data Sufficiency

In questions numbered 1 to 20
a question is followed by data in the form of two statements labeled as I and II. You must decide whether the data given in the statements are sufficient to answer the questions. Using the data make an appropriate choice from (1) to (4) as per the following guidelines:
(a) Mark choice (1) if the statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
(b) Mark choice (2) if the statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.
(c) Mark choice (3) if both the statements I and II are sufficient to answer the question but neither statements alone is sufficient.
(d) Mark choice (4) if both the statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question and additional data is required.

Among the five rivers

R_1, R_2, R_3, R_4

and

R_5

which one is the short river?
I.

R_3

is the longest river and R\ is shorter than

R_2

but longer than

R_5

II.

R_4

is a little shorter than R:and a little longer than

R_1

Validate

Solution:

From statement I, we get

R_1,R_2

and

R_3

cannot bethe shorter rivers, Hence

R_4

R_5

is the shortest
From statement II, we get

R_2

and

R_4

are not the shortest rivers. Combining both the statements, we get

R_5

is the shortest river. Both the statements together are sufficient.
