We need to total number of Marbles Kevin has

Option 1:
we can get
x-10=x/2
x=20 Hence sufficient

Option 2:
White marbles be x
Black is 3x
total 4x. But we don't know anything about X hence not sufficient .

Answer should be option A
Bunuel
How many marbles does Kevin have?

(1) If Kevin had 10 fewer marbles, he would have only half as many marbles as he actually has.
(2) Kevin has thrice as many black marbles as white marbles.
