First statement doesn't have info about # of potatoes (INSUFFICIENT)
Second statement gives info on minimum/maximum # of potatoes in every 5 pounds
So for 1 USD, one can buy 75 potatoes
IMO:B

Given: Rate is 0.2$/pound. So, for $1, we can get $1/(0.2$/pound) = 5 pounds of potatoes. Question asks for max number of potatoes.
Stmt 1: Price of a bag of potatoes is given, but does not mention number of potatoes per bag, hence, we can only find out number of bags, but not the max. no. of potatoes. Hence Insufficient.
Stmt 2: There are 10-15 potatoes in every 5 pounds. As we already simplified our question stem for $1 to be equivalent to 5 pounds of potatoes, the max number of potatoes will be 15. Hence Sufficient.
Hence Option B.
