Read the given question and decide which of the following statements is/are sufficient to answer the question. Question: If there are 100 sheep in a farm then what is the number of female sheep that are brown ? Statements: 1. There are 10 male sheep that are brown. 2. 25% of the sheep's are brown. Correct Answer Both 1 and 2 together are sufficient

Given:

Number of sheep on the farm = 100

Calculation:

Statement I: There are 10 male sheep that are brown.

It means out of 100, there are 10 male brown sheep. But we have to find the female brown sheep.

Statement II: 25% of the sheep are brown.

25% of 100 = 25 sheeps are brown(Male + Female)

The number of female sheep is not mentioned.

Statement I + Statement II:

When we combine the two statements we get the actual value of Female brown sheep.

25 sheep are brown(male + female) - 10 Male sheep that are brown = 15 Female sheep are brown.

∴ Both statements are required to get the solution.
