can make out from the diagram that more
students are from IT and HR and in that
more women are in IT.
6. From statement A we get A, B & C total age.
From statement C, we get B & C total age.
(A + B + C) (B + C) = A
A and C together are sufficient.

Area of ceiling = l b = 20 12 = 240 Sqm
Total area to be painted = 512 + 240 = 752
Cost = 752 Rs.120 = Rs.90240
