A CEO is building an extra-wide garage in which to park his limousines. The garage is x feet wide, and at least 2 feet of space is required between each two cars and between the cars and the walls. Will all 9 limousines fit in the garage?
(1) The average width of the limousines is the square root of x. (2) x = 100.

Some assumptions to be made in this question...
When we combine we get that the width of limousines is 10 meters. Thus 9 limousines will need 9*10=90 meters, plus the additional space required between each two cars and between the cars and the walls. The sum will be more than 100 meters. So, the answer is NO. Sufficient.

x = 9 (Average width of Limo) + Min [10 (2)] -----(1) 10 because 9 cars will have 8 gaps & 2 gaps for extreme ends (between wall & car)
Statement 1 x = 9 \(\sqrt{x}\) + Min [10 (2)] Still we cant solve the equation as we don't know the value of x Thus insufficient
Statement 2 100 = 9 (Average width of Limo) + Min [10 (2)] Still we cant solve the equation as we don't know the value of "Average width of Limo" Thus insufficient
Statement 1&2 100 = 9 \(\sqrt{100}\) + Min [10 (2)] 100 = 9 (10) + Min [10 (2)] 100 = Min 110 This clearly shows the garage won't be able to hold all the 9 limos Thus Sufficient
