The total number of exams taken by all students put together was 40
3x+4y=40
x=4,y=7
x=8;y=4
x=12;y=1
If the number of students in class A was less than the number of students in class B
x<y
sufficient x=4
#2
If 5 students from class B leave the hall, the total number of exams will be reduced to 20.
x+y-5=20
x+y=25
insufficient
IMO A
