If the average of 7 numbers is 72, how many of the numbers are equal to 72?
(1) Of the seven numbers, six are odd integers, and the average of those integers is 72 --> since 6 out of 7 numbers are odd then none of them is equal to 72. Now, since the average of these 6 numbers is 72 then the 7th number must equal to 72 in order the overall average to be 72, which means that there are only one number equal to 72. Sufficient.
(2) At least one of the numbers is equal to 72. Not sufficient.
Answer: A.

Clearly (A).
Statement 1: If six of the seven integers are odd and their average is 72, it follows that the last (seventh) integer has to be 72 as well. Also, as the first six integers are odd, there is just one 72 in the set. Sufficient.
Statement 2: If one or more of the numbers is 72, the remaining numbers in the set can be a combination of less, more, or equal to 72. So we can have all 72s, or some more than 72 and some less, or some more than 72, some less, and some equal to 72. This makes the number of 72s uncertain. Insufficient.
Therefore (A)
