Statement(1) : w=7/5*n!, where w is an integer.
Here, since w is an integer, the denominator can completely divide n!
Which means that n has to necessarily be 5 or greater
But no information given on m
Not Sufficient

Statement (2): y=3/4*m!, where y is an integer.
Similarly, here, since y is an integer, the denominator can completely divide m!
Which means that m has to necessarily be 4 or greater
But no information given on n
Not Sufficient

Using both statements, we can say that the minimum value of product of m and n
= m x n
= 5! x 4!

Regardless of how big the values of m and n will be , the product will contain the digits 5 and 2 through n and m
This means that the units digit will always be 0

Correct Option : C

Always be careful in seeing what the Q asks you..
we are looking for m*n...
m! is multiple of 5 so it can be 6 , 7, 10 ..
n! is a multiple of 4 so n can be 4,5,6,7 ...
so mn can have any units digit = 4*6 or 5*4.. and so on
you have taken value of m! * n!
