A question is given, followed by two statements labelled I and II. Identify which of the statements is/are sufficient/necessary to answer the question. Question: On which day does Sujatha's birthday fall? Statements: I. Tom correctly remembers that her birthday comes after Tuesday but before Saturday. II. Anu correctly remembers that her birthday comes before Thursday but after Monday. Correct Answer Both statements I and II together are sufficient to answer the question
• Statement I: Sujatha's birthday can be on → Wednesday or Thursday or Friday.
Thus, Statement I alone is not sufficient as no definite answer can be given.
• Statement II: Sujatha's birthday can be on → Tuesday or Wednesday
Thus, Statement II alone is not sufficient as no definite answer can be given.
• Combining data in Statement I and Statement II:
Sujatha's birthday can be on → Wednesday
Thus, both statements are required.
Hence, 'option 4' is the correct answer.
