How many Chocolates does the shopkeeper sells on Sunday ?I.On Sunday h...
Statement I: On Sunday, the shopkeeper sold 12 more chocolates than he sold the previous day.
Statement II: He sold 28 chocolates each on Thursday and Saturday.
To find out how many chocolates the shopkeeper sold on Sunday, we need to combine the information given in both statements.
Combining the information:
From statement II, we know that the shopkeeper sold 28 chocolates on Saturday.
From statement I, we know that the shopkeeper sold 12 more chocolates on Sunday than he sold the previous day.
However, we do not know how many chocolates were sold on the previous day. Therefore, we cannot determine the exact number of chocolates sold on Sunday based on the information provided in the individual statements.
Let's consider some possible scenarios:
Scenario 1: If the shopkeeper sold 16 chocolates on the previous day (Saturday), then he would have sold 16 + 12 = 28 chocolates on Sunday.
Scenario 2: If the shopkeeper sold 20 chocolates on the previous day (Saturday), then he would have sold 20 + 12 = 32 chocolates on Sunday.
As we can see, the number of chocolates sold on Sunday can vary depending on the number of chocolates sold on the previous day. Therefore, the information provided in both statements is necessary to determine the exact number of chocolates sold on Sunday.
Hence, the correct answer is option E - The data in both statements I and II together are necessary to answer the question.
