Statement 1
(1) 120 workers at Factory X install batteries, and 200 workers knit socks.
We don't have any information on the number of workers who does both activities. Also, the statement fails to provide whether every worker in the factory works on the mentioned activities, or if one or more activities are not accounted for.
The statement is not sufficient. We can eliminate A, and D.
Statement 2
(2) Every employee of Factory X either installs batteries or knits socks, or both.
Doesn't state any information on the number of workers working in the factory. Hence, the information alone is not sufficient.
Combined
The information in statement 1 and statement 2 combined doesn't help either. From both statements, we know the number of workers working in each of the activities, however we don't know whether any worker performs both activities. Hence, the statements combined do not help.
