If the smallest number in a set of positive integers is 3, how many numbers does the set have?

(1) The set is average of 6
(2) Range of the set is equal to the average of the set

lol, crazy answers KC!!!
what if the #s are 3;9. But they could also be 3;3;9;9 or 3;6;9
E has to be.

The answer must be C

st 1 insuff
st2 insuff

Combining 1 and 2 we get
max integer -3 =6 max integer is 9

Now since set consists of +ve integers
and the average is 6 with smallest integer as 3
The set should contain 3,4,5,6,7,8,9
Please let me know if I am wrong.

So, according to you the answer should be 7 numbers (3;4;5;6;7;8;9) right? But what if the numbers are 3 (3;6;9). I think you still follow the two statements given, right?
