(1) A tuna will slip through the net and not get caught unless it weighs over 5 lbs.
(2) A net full of tuna, which is 100 fish, weighs on average 800 lbs

A for me.
state 1- tells us that if the fish is caught, minimum weight is 5 lbs.. so the maximum fish that can be held in the cart is 1600/5.
hence, suff.
state 2- we just know the capacity of the net, but no information regarding the relationship between a net and cart is provided. Hence, insuff.

s[1]: Tuna has a min wt of 5lbs, so can calculate the maximum number of tuna possible. Sufficient
s[2]: Avg wt of a net with 100 fish is 800. So you can say avg wt of fish is 8lbs. However you need the minimum wt of fish to calculate the maximum number a cart can hold. Insufficient.
