Is the hundredths digit of the decimal d greater than 5?

(1) The tenths digit of 10d is 7
(2) The thousandths digit of d/10 is 7

Thanks bunuel,
But what if the decimal
d=72121.212121
d/10 = 7212.12121
in this case with statement 2, the thousands digit is 7 but that information is not enough to find out the hundredth digit... please correct me where i am wrong...
Thank you very much for the reply

Oh my GOD....
This is first time i have paid attention to this term thousands and thousanths

Its D because you can use any number as sample:

Lets say you have .456; then .456*10= 4.56 then 5 has to be the hundredths digit before the multiplication. In the questions problem the 5 is actually a 7. (1) sufficient.

In the same way, 3.456/ 10 = .3456; thus the former hundredths digit is now the thousandths digit which is given. (2)(Sufficient)

Thus D.

Hi banuel,

you posted in 1234.567, 5 = 10 th digit. Will you please explain. Is it not unit digit ?

Thanks in advance.

Forget conventional ways of solving math questions. In DS, Variable approach is the easiest and quickest way to find the answer without actually solving the problem. Remember equal number of variables and independent equations ensures a solution.

1) The tenths digit of 10d is 7.
2) The thousandths digit of d/10 is 7.

There is one variable (d) and 2 equations are given by the conditions, so there is high chance (D) will become the answer.
For condition 1, the hundredth digit of d=7. This is unique and the condition is hence sufficient
For condition 2, the hundredth digit of d=7. This is unique and the condition is hence sufficient
1)=2), and the answer hence becomes (D).

For cases where we need 1 more equation, such as original conditions with “1 variable”, or “2 variables and 1 equation”, or “3 variables and 2 equations”, we have 1 equation each in both 1) and 2). Therefore, there is 59 % chance that D is the answer, while A or B has 38% chance and C or E has 3% chance. Since D is most likely to be the answer using 1) and 2) separately according to DS definition. Obviously there may be cases where the answer is A, B, C or E.
