Question

What is the present age of the father? Statement I: The father is 30 years older than his son. Statement II: The son is 10 years old now.

• A. Statement I alone is sufficient, but statement II alone is not sufficient.
• B. Statement II alone is sufficient, but statement I alone is not sufficient.
• C. Both statements together are sufficient, but neither statement alone is sufficient.
• D. Each statement alone is sufficient.

Hint:

You need both the age difference and the son's actual age.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The father's age needs both a reference value (the son's age from II) and the gap (from I). Since one gives only the gap and the other only the son's age, only the pair fixes the answer.
