Consider the Question and two Statements given below : Question : Is xan integer? Statement-1 : x / 3 is not an integer. Statement-2 : 3 xis an integer. Which one of the following is correct in respect of the Question and the Statements?
Both Statement – 1 and Statement – 2 are not sufficient to answer the Question
Option(4) is correct.
Statement-1 : x / 3 is not an integer :False , for x = 6 , x/3 = 2 which is integer, so this statement is false.
Statement-2 : 3x is an integer:False , for x= 1/2 , 3x = 3/2 which is not an integer.
Therefore both statements are false.
Hence, the correct answer is an option(4) i.e., Both Statement – 1 and Statement – 2 are not sufficient to answer the question.

Question:
Among 5 trees, L, M, N, T and V each having a different height, which tree is the shortest?
Statements:
(I) N is shorter than only three trees.
(II) N is taller than M but shorter than T. Below is given a pair of questions, which are required to be answered, and a triad of statements. Which group of statements is sufficient to answer both the questions?
Question 1: Who is sitting opposite to Q?
Question 2: Who is sitting to the right of Q?
Statement 1 : P and U are sitting on left and right sides of T, respectively
Statement 2: P, Q, R, S, T and U are sitting around a round table with six chairs
Statement 3: Q is NOT sitting on the immediate left side of R
- Area of a rectangle with length x and breadth y is P and area of a parallelogram (which is strictly not a rectangle) with adjacent sides of length x and y is Q.
Question : Is \(P > Q\)?
Statement-I: \(x : y = 2 : 1\)
Statement-II: The angle between the two adjacent sides of the parallelogram is \(60^\circ\).
