\((\frac{a}{b})^c > 1\)
St 1 : b - a = 9. it states that b >a.
a/b = fraction for sure.
C is also positive.
Minimum value of C = 1.
when we square a fraction , it becomes even smaller.
Thus , we will get a result which will always be a fraction .
Sufficient.
St: no idea about the size of the a and b.
NOT sufficient.
A is the correct answer.

If a, b, and c are positive integers, we dont care about c as it is c>=1
To answer the question we need to find out whether a>b
1 stm --> b>a, suff
2 stm --> nothing about b and a. not suff
IMO
Ans: A
