Data Sufficiency

Question:

What is the value 120 $ 12 * 6 # 2?

Statement (I): $ Means ÷, * means × and # means +.
Statement (II): 16 $ 4 * 2 # 2 = 10

Decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question.

Options:

If I alone is sufficient, while II alone is not sufficient.

If II alone is sufficient, while I alone is not sufficient.

If I and II together are necessary to answer the question.

If either I or II is sufficient.

Correct Answer:

If either I or II is sufficient.

Explanation:

Statement (I): $ Means ÷, * means × and # means +

Value of:

120 $ 12 * 6 # 2 = 120÷12×6+2 = 62

Also, 

Statement (II): 16 $ 4 * 2 # 2 = 10, trying arithmetic operators, 16÷4×2+2=10

Thus $ Means ÷, * means × and # means +

The correct answer is Option (4) → If either I or II is sufficient.
