Correct Answer <p>If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.</p>

Calculation:

From statement I

Work is done by A, B, and C in a day = 1/12

Work is done by A and B in a day = 1/15

Work is done by C in a day = (1/12) – (1/15)

⇒ {(5 – 4)/60}

⇒ 1/60

Then, Time is taken by C to complete the work = 60 days

So, the statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II

Work is done by A, B, and C in a day = 1/12

Work is done by B and C in a day = 1/20

So, statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

∴ The data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.
