(1) Only
No info on y. Not Sufficient
(2) Only
No info on x. Not sufficient.
(1)(2) Together
Because this question does not even stipulate that x > y, we can easily conclude (1)(2) together is still insufficient.
If x = 6, and y = 3, x is divisible by y
If x = 6, and y = 9, x is not divisible by y.
Even if an added condition of "x > y" is introduced, the answer is still insufficient.
The answer is thus (E).
