A=0.abc, where a, b and c are distinct digits, is \(A>\frac{3}{4}\)?
So, A>0.75, which means is a\(\geq{7}\)

(1) a/b=2 and b/c=3/4...
a=2b, and 4b=3c...
4b=3c tells us that c can be 4 or 8..
a) if c is 4
4b=3*c=3*4...b=3, and a=2b=2*3=6
A=0.634...Ans NO
b) if c is 8
4b=3*c=3*8...b=6, and a=2b=2*6=12.. BUT a is a digit, so cannot be >9.

So, only possibility is A=0.634...Ans NO
Suff

(2) 2(a+b)>10a+b
2a+2b>10a+b....b>8a....
Since b is <10, only possibility for a is 1..
Hence ans NO
suff

D

NOTE.. You have different values of a and b from statement I and II. Will not be the case in actuals.

(1) a/b=2 and b/c=3/4
(2) 2(a+b)>10a+b

Can somebody help me understand the question? A=0.abc I read this as A is equal to 0 multiplied by a*b*c.

Firstly, the question will mention the same way you have written (A*B*C) if the intention is to multiply the digits or it will be mentioned explicitly in the question stem itself ( eg multiplication of three numbers).
Secondly, do you think that there would any point to ask such question because any number multiplied by 0 will always yield you zero, then how can it be greater than 0; So you could have answered this question even without the 2 statements given.
Give a thought!

Ah. Sorry. I had a brain fade. Re-read the question again today and realized the absurdity of my doubt!

However, it is a good question for practice, the values of variables from both statements have to be same.
We are getting different values of A in the 2 statements.
A = 0.634 from St1
A = 0.19C from St2

Bad quality question, 2 statements wouldn't contradict each other.
