Re: Another Tricky Burger Problem [#permalink] New post 20 Jun 2011, 22:03
Let # of burgers = B

and # of Sanwiches = S,

So we need to find B/S = ?

(1) says :

1.05B = 175/100 * S

B/S = 175/105 = 5/3

So B/S can be easily found

Sufficient

(2) says :

B = 735000 burgers and S = 441000

B/S = 735/441 = 5/3 (duvide by 147)

Sufficient

Answer - D
