Question does the last moment by which it must respond to a particular inquiry occur on a Friday?
Service department replies within 84 hours =72 hours+10 hours = 3 days + 10 hours
(1) The inquiry was placed on a Tuesday.
Case 1:
If it was placed on Tuesday at 00:00 (12:00 a.m.)
then => 00:00 (Tue) +82 hours-> 10:00 (Fri)
Case 2;
If it was placed on Tuesday at 23:59 (11:59 p.m.)
then => 23:59 (Tue) +82 hours=> 09:59 (Sat)
Case 1=> YES
Case 2 => NO
(2) The inquiry was made between 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.
The day is not mentioned. It could start on any day of the week
NOT Sufficient
From 1 and 2=> Checking extreme times 2pm and 4 pm
2:00 p.m Wednesday + 82 hours = 12:00 a.m Saturday NO
4:00 p.m Wednesday + 82 hours = 2:00 a.m Saturday NO
Sufficient. ANSWER C
Bunuel i feel the OA is wrong, It should be C, Statement 2 cannot be sufficient
