Data Sufficiency

MCQ - 28-4004

Question:

A wheel of radius 2 meters is turning at a constant speed. How many revolutions does it make in time T?

  1. T = 20 minutes.
  2. The speed at which a point on the circumference of the wheel is moving is 3 meters per minute.

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

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

To find the number of revolutions we need to know the rate of turning and the time duration. Statement (1) gives us only the time, and so the answer cannot be A or D. Statement (2) tells us the rate at which a point on the circumference is moving, which, since we know the dimensions of the wheel, is sufficient to determine the number of rotations per minute. But since we do not know the time, B cannot be correct. But putting (1) and (2) together we have all we need, so the answer is C.
