I. One-fourth of the weight of a pole is 5 kilograms.

II. The total weight of three poles is 20 kilograms more than the total weight of two poles. 

A) If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question B) If the data in statement II alone are sufficient answer the question
C) If the data either in I or II alone are sufficient to answer the question; D) If the data even in both the statements together are not sufficient to answer the question
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) If the data either in I or II alone are sufficient to answer the question;

Explanation:

From I, we find that the weight of one pole is (5 x 4) = 20 kg ,and so the weight of 10 poles is 200 kg.

Thus, I alone is sufficient.

From II. we have : (weight of 3 poles — weight of 2 poles) -= 20 kg or weight of one pole - 20 kg.

So. weight of 10 poles 200 kg.

Thus. II alone is also sufficient
