Each person in a room attends exactly one of the three colleges A, B, and C. What is the probability that a person selected at random from the people in the room attends college B?
(1) The number of people in the room attending college B is 20 less than the sum of the numbers of people in the room attending colleges A and C.
(2) The ratio of the number people in the room attending college B to the sum of the numbers of people in the room attending colleges A and C is 2 to 3.

Using statement one-----> We get next to nothing as the value of numerator and denominator can go on increasing.For the same difference Between numerator and denominator the ratio increases with increase in value. 2/5<3/6<4/7 and so on...So insufficient.
Statement two Gives B/(A+B) = 2/3
----------------->B/(A+B+C) = 2/5

To calculate probability we need to know how many attend B and how many students are there.
A. Not sufficient as we don't know how many students are there
B. We know students who attend B are 2 of (a+b+c) i.e. 2+3=5 so 2/5. Sufficient
