I think the answer should be C.
Statement 1: NOT SUFFICIENT. Assuming the speed of the wheel A= x and B=3x, we cannot determine the individual actual speeds (which are required to answer this question).
Statement 2: NOT SUFFICIENT. The average speed also doesn't help to determine the individual actual speeds (which are required to answer this question).
Putting Statement 1 and Statement 2 together
The individual speeds can be determined by the formula: Average Speed= (S1+S2)/2
40= x+3x/2
x= 20 revolutions per min (Speed of A)
3x= 60 revolutions per min(Speed of B)
Relative Distance= 6 rotations (given in the question stem)
Relative Speed= 60-20 revolutions per min (calculated above)
Time= Relative Distance/Relative Speed
= 6*60/40
= 9 secs
