Question

    A bakery produces three types of bread: White, Wheat,

    and Rice. What is the total number of loaves produced in a week? Statements: I: The bakery produces 300 loaves of White bread per day, 200 loaves of Wheat bread per day, and 150 loaves of Rice  bread per day. The bakery operates 7 days a week. II: The production of White bread is 10% higher than Wheat bread and 20% higher than Rice bread. III: Last week, the bakery increased its production of Wheat bread by 25% and Rice bread by 15%.
    A Only Statement I alone is sufficient. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only Statement II alone is sufficient. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only Statement III alone is sufficient. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Statements I and II together are sufficient. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All statements together are needed. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Statement I: Total production of White bread = 300 * 7 = 2,100. Total production of Wheat bread = 200 * 7 = 1,400. Total production of Rice bread = 150 * 7 = 1,050. Total production = 2,100 + 1,400 + 1,050 = 4,550. Sufficient. Statement II: This provides relationships but does not give specific quantities to calculate total output directly. Not sufficient. Statement III: This gives information about production increases but does not provide specific figures for total loaves produced. Not sufficient. The answer is A.
