Secondly... Answer to this questions could be D or E
D... as a reason we explained by the recent post. of Harley1980
E i am saying... the reason.. could both statement give different answers?
st 1 giving 27
st 2 giving 26
but both giving a finite answer but still different.
is this a property of DS?
While theoretically it is possible to get two different answers from the two DS options (and mark D as your final choice), GMAT questions never include such options in order to avoid confusion.
As you can see, even in this question, both (1) and (2) lead to the same answer independently.
