The question below is followed by three statements I, II and III. You have to determine whether the data given is sufficient for answering the question. You should use the data and your knowledge of mathematics to choose the best possible answer. In a garments shop, there are 2 items shirts and jeans. Find which of these two items is greater in quantity? Statement I∶ The price of a shirt and a jeans is Rs. 150 and Rs. 250 respectively. Statement II∶ The total price of all the items together is Rs. 4200. Statement III∶ The average of price of all the items in the shop is Rs. 210. Correct Answer Statement I and III together are sufficient to answer the question.
Suppose there are ‘x’ shirts and ‘y’ jeans in the shop;
Statement I and III∶
∴ 150x + 250y = 210x + 210y
⇒ 60x = 40y
⇒ x ∶ y = 2 ∶ 3
∴ We can say that jeans are in greater quantity.
∴ Statement I and III together are sufficient to answer the question.
