[quote="Bunuel"]If x, y, and z are all positive integers, how many trailing zeros are contained in the product of (5^x)(2^y)(3^z)?

(1) x = 12
(2) x < y


I think the answer to this question should be C as each statement alone is not giving any solution but by combining both we know that x is 12 and y is more than 12. thus the product has 12 zeros in it.
