Please add some details. /43 Data Sufficiency Data sufficiency questions evaluate one’s ability to determine whether the given data is adequate to solve a problem. Participants are presented with a question followed by two or more statements containing relevant information. They must assess whether each statement alone or in combination provides enough data to answer the question. This requires analytical thinking, logical reasoning, and the ability to analyze and interpret data effectively. Mastery of data sufficiency enhances problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and decision-making abilities. These questions are common in aptitude tests, standardized exams, and assessments, reflecting their importance in assessing one’s ability to analyze information and draw conclusions accurately. 1 / 43 1) If ‘over and above’ is written as ‘ja na ta’ in a code language, how is ‘and’ written in that code language? I. ‘come and go’ is written as ‘ha la ja’ in that code language. II. ‘he and you’ is written as ‘da ja ma’ in that code language. A) 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 B) If the data in both the Statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. C) If the data either in Statement I alone or Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question D) If the data in Statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in. Statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question. Given that, over and above = ja na ta …(A) From Statement I, come and go = ha la ja From Statement II, he and you = da ja ma Clearly, either from (A) and Statement I or from (A) and Statement II, and = ja So, either Statement I or Statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question 2 / 43 2) How many rooms does your house have? I. The number of rooms is the same as the number of family members in our house. II. The number is sufficient to accommodate our family members. A) If the data either in Statement I alone or in Statement II alone are sufficient to answer the question. B) If the data given in both the Statements I. and II together are not sufficient to answer the question C) If the data in both the Statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question. D) 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. Data inadequate both Statements I and II are not sufficient to answer the question. 3 / 43 3) Who among A, B, C, D, E and F each having a different height, is the tallest ? I.
