I think C is sufficient...

(2) says net revenue is 200*10+100+10(2)< yesterday...

net revenue today is 200*10 + 100+10(1)

so B is insufficient..casuse we could have sold 13, 14 products

now if (1) is used then we know that had 2 more products sold...alone insuff

but 1+2 sufficient

1) Yesterday 2 more products were sold than today.
2) The revenue from yesterday is by $10 greater than today's revenue. (Please show your workings ... what formular could be made if this were PS? ) well, i think what matters here is that we shouldn't understand the number of products sold starts from 0 each day ....instead, we should understand that the number of ticket sold yesterday is an accumulated number from the day before, before before yesterday and so forth.

2) The revenue from yesterday is by $10 greater than today's revenue. (Please show your workings ... what formular could be made if this were PS? ) I still think it is E. 1) does not give out anything 2) says that the no of products sold on both days falls in the 10-20 category and one book extra was sold yesterday. But it can be 12 and 11 or 13 and 12 etc. -- insuff 1 and 2-- could not get any nos that satisfy this. -- insuf Looking forward to see the OA and OE Director Joined: 14 Sep 2005 Posts: 993 Location: South Korea Followers: 2 Kudos [?]: 148 [0], given: 0 [#permalink] ### Show Tags 29 Nov 2005, 08:04 Tha OA is (C).

How many products were sold yesterday?

1) Yesterday 2 more products were sold than today.
2) The revenue from yesterday is by $10 greater than today's revenue. (Please show your workings ... what formular could be made if this were PS? ) If I understand the stem correctly, each product is worth of at least$10 or more, and thus two extra product would be worth of at least $20. From (2) we know yesterday's number is between 11 and 17. Combine (1) and (2) there is no possible solution. Or let's look at it in more details: Let x be yesterday's number. Two more products would result in the following revenue differences: If x<=8, the rev difference would be$400.
If x=9, the rev difference would be $310. If x=10, the rev difference would be$120.
If 11<=x<=17, the rev difference would be $20. If x=18, the rev difference would be$30.
If x>=19, the rev difference would be \$40.

The only occasions where we would be able to determine x would be if (2) says the revenue difference is 310, 120, or 30.
