DIRECTIONS for the question: The question below is followed by two statements marked A and B. Using the information provided decide whether the information given is sufficient to solve the problem.
Is X an even number?
A. X is divisible by 2.
B. X + an odd number is an odd number.
A)
if the statement A alone is sufficient to answer the question, but the statement B alone is not sufficient
B)
if the statement B alone is sufficient to answer the question, but the statement A alone is not sufficient
C)
if both statements A and B together are needed to answer the question
D)
if either the statement A alone or statement B alone is sufficient to answer the question
E)
if you cannot get the answer from the statement A and B together, but need even more data
D
According to statement A since X is divisible by 2 so it is even. Using stat. B if X + odd is odd then X has to be even. Both the statements are independently sufficient to answer. So answer is 4th option.
