Am I right here?

If \(R\) = \(\frac{M}{N}\), is \(R ≤ M\)?

\((1) M > 40 \)
\((2) 0 < N ≤ 15\)


Substituting \(R = \frac{M}{N}\) in \(R ≤ M\)

\(\frac{M}{N}≤M\) --> \(M(\frac{1}{N}-1)≤0\)

it means either \(M\) and \(\frac{1}{N}-1\) have opposite signs or one of them is Zero.

Statement 1-
\(M>40\) ---> No information about N, therefore not sufficient.

Statement 2-
\(0 < N ≤ 15\) ---> No information about M, therefore not sufficient.

Statement 1 & 2-
M is positive but \(\frac{1}{N}-1\) can be Positive (for \(0<N<1\)) or xNegative (for [/m]N>1[/m]) therfore both Statemens together not sufficent.

Answer is E
