D If the data in both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E If the data even in both statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

From I. Suppose Mishra receives Rs. 100x as retirement fund. Then, 100x - (20 + 15)x = 65% Again, 65x - (65x × 90)/100 = 6.5x So, 6.5x = 3,90,000 ∴x = (390000×10)/65 = Rs. 60,000 ∴ Mishra’s retirement fund = Rs. 60,000 Hence I alone is sufficient. In statement II, neither the total amount nor the remaining amount is given. Hence, with this statement we cannot answer the question.
