Total Non-Math majors \(- \text{ 60%}\) of Total students

Total Senior Non-Math majors \(- \frac{3}{5} \text{ of 60% = 36%}\) of Total students



Statement 1: There are 450 students in the math class



NOT SUFFICIENT

Statement 2: There are 340 seniors



NOT SUFFICIENT

Combined:



NOT SUFFICIENT

Answer is E­
­Making matrics,

Given - ­Of the students in a certain math class, each student either is a math major or is not a math major, and each student either is a senior or is not a senior. Of these students, 60% are not math majors. Of those students who are not math majors, \(\frac{3}{5}\) are seniors.
Lets assume class had 100x students
---------Math Major------------No Math Major ---- Total
S -------________-------------__36x___----------- 340 (2nd statement)
NS------________-------------__24x___-----------_____
Total------40x--------------------60x------------------100x

To find - Are there more seniors who are math majors than there are seniors who are not math majors? Yes/No Type question

1st - There are 450 students in the math class.
100x=450, x=4.5
No sufficient as we dont know the Senior math major count.

2nd - There are 340 seniors.­
Still not sufficient.

Combining both
Now we know x=4.5 and Total Seniors = 340
36x = 4.5*36 = 162
Therefore, Senior Math Major = 340 - Senior non math major = 340 - 162 = 178
Senior Math Major > Senior Non Math Major - Yes
Sufficient. Answer is C.
Hope it helps.
­Yeah. You are right. I mistook Math Class for Math Major. Edited the answer. Thanks
