Even though question doesn't have much info, you should make a note of integer constraints, that students will always be positive integers.
This is a Yes or No question, simply put it says if total students at Ridgecrest Elementary School(R) is a multiple of 6?
Consider statement 1:
Quote:
Insufficient
We know nothing about R, eliminate A and D
Consider statement 2:
Quote:
R = 1.2C
R/C = 6/5
R and C must be integers, so they will always be in the ration 6:5 (6:5, 12:10 ...)
and R will always be a multiple of multiple of 6.
Sufficient
Correct Answer: B

Btw (2) Ridgecrest Elementary School has 20% more students than Elementary School => I consider that Elementary can be any elementary in the world, hence it did not match with (1).
I think the question should be more solid.
