Statement 1: 300 multiplied by p is square of an integer.
p can we 3 , 2700 ,......so on . Not Sufficient
Statement 2: p is a factor of 75.
The factors of 75 are 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, and 75. Therefore, the possible values of p are 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, or 75. Not Sufficient
By taking both the statement together, p can be 3 or 75
Answer is E

(1) Only
Since 300= 10^2 * 3
p = 3 * n^2 where n is 1, 2, 3, ...
There are unlimited p values.
Not sufficient.
(2) Only
p can be 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75
Not sufficient
(1)(2) Together
p can be 1 or 75 = 3 * 5^2
Not sufficient.
The answer is thus (E).
