Question

Each of the following questions below consists of a question and two statements numbered I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and give the answer.

What is the remainder when x is divided by 25?

I. x is a multiple of 5.

II. x is a multiple of 125

A If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient in answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B If the data in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C If the data in either in statement I alone or in statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D If the data in both the statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E If the data in both the statements I and II are together necessary to answer the question. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

We know that if x is a multiple of 5 (factor of 25), it is not necessary that it is divisible by 25 (another multiple of 5) From II, we know that if ‘x’ is a multiple of a number which has 25 as its factor, then x is definitely completely divisible by 25 and thus remainder will be 0.
