[Q.59 - 60] A question is given followed by two statements I and II. You have to decide if one or both statements are sufficient to answer the question.

What is the number?

(I) Sum of the digits is 12. Ratio of digits is 1 : 3.

(II) Product of the digits is 27. Quotient of the digits is 3.

AI alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
BII alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
CEither I or II alone is sufficient
DNeither I nor II are sufficient

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Statement I (sum 12) and statement II (product 27) each give the digit pair 3 and 9. Reading the ratio / quotient in the usual tens-to-units order, each statement alone identifies the number, so either statement alone is sufficient. (The wording of this item in the original paper is open to more than one reading.)
