To determine whether h > i, consider the following: Statement I: h > j; Are the statements sufficient to conclude h > i?
Statement II: j > i.
Both statements together
Statement I alone (h > j) gives no information about i, so it is not sufficient.
Statement II alone (j > i) gives no information about h, so it is not sufficient.
Using both together: h > j and j > i give the chain h > j > i, so by transitivity h > i.
Hence, both statements together are sufficient to conclude h > i.
