What is the remainder when n is divided by 15?
1). When n is divided by 5, the remainder is 4
2). When n is divided by 6, the remainder is 5

IMO "C"

1) say,4+5p=n=> n can be 9,14,19,24,etc
INSUFFI
2)say 6q+5=n=> n can vbe 11,17,23 etc

INSUFFI
1) and 2) we get lCM of 5 , 6 = 30
hence 30r+9=n reminders add up hence now when we divide n /15 we get 9 as remainder
HENCE IMO C

Not sure how you arrived at this.....but remainder will be 14.
