statement 2 alone is sufficient, but statement 1 alone is not sufficient to answer the question
both statements taken together are sufficient to answer the question, but neither statement alone is sufficient
statement 2 alone is sufficient, but statement 1 alone is not sufficient to answer the question
statements 1 and 2 together are not sufficient, and additional data is needed to answer the question

Correct Answer: E

Explanation:

From (1) we know the ratio of male to female sheep, but nothing about the color distribution. So the answer cannot be A or D. From (2) we know that forty percent of the animals are black but nothing about whether they are male of female. So the answer cannot be B. Even putting the information together does not help because there is no way to tell what fraction of the female sheep are black. And so C cannot be correct, and the answer is E.
