Very good one. It reminds me a question in OG 16.

Solution:
The numbers in the diagram can be only 6,7,8.
1) K+Z = 13 --> K=7 Z=6 or K=6, Z=7
in both cases it is clear that W & M must be 8 and so B must be 8 --> SUFF
2) Says that W & M must be 8 and so B must be 8 ---> SUFF

Therefore both statements are sufficient alone.

Option A: yes help us in solution
Option B : how it help us in solution,
w+M = 16 then both are 8 but it does not imply about b+k+z
For me only A helps..!!!

If w and m are 8, k and z must be 6 or 7, so you have The value of k, z, b. And so option b is sufficient.
