A merchant discounted the sale price of a coat and the sale price of

A merchant discounted the sale price of a coat and the sale price of a sweater. Which of the two articles of clothing was discounted by the greater dollar amount?

(1) The percent discount on the coat was 2 percentage points greater than the percent discount on the sweater.
(2) Before the discounts, the sale price of the coat was $10 less than the sale price of the sweater.

Solution : In this question, we have to find 4 different values
Sp of coat, discount on coat, sp of sweater, and discount on sweater.
Statement 1 : we get d as the discount % on sweater, so for coat=d+2 %
but we don't have any idea about SP, so insuff.
Statement 2 : we know the SP of the coats and sweater as S-10 and S respectively but we don't know the discounts. So insuff.
Combining both 1 and 2
we get whether D % of S is > or = or < to D+2 % of S-10
Put random values and you will get both greater than and less than values
so both statements are insuff. Answer is E
(no calculations are required actually, count the no of variables only)
