Statement I: “Sangita has scored more marks than 12 children in the group”.

Now, there can be more children present in the group who would have scored more than

Sangita.

So, the exact number of total children in the group cannot be determined.

Statement II: “Reena has scored less than Sangita”.

This statement alone gives us no idea about the total children.

Combining I and II:

We understand that Reena has scored more than Sangita and 11 other children.

But it still doesn’t give us any idea about the total no. of children in the class.

Hence, both Statements are not sufficient to answer the following question.
