We need to find the value of 2x + 2y.

Statement 1 states that 3x + 5y = 60.
Here x and y are not stated as integers and for two variables we need two equations to solve.
Hence Not Sufficient.

Cancel AD. Keep BCE.

Statement 2 states that 5x + 3y = 68
Here also x and y are not stated as integers and for two variables we need two equations to solve.
Hence Insufficient

Cancel B. Keep CE.

Statements 1 and 2 combined we get two variables two equations to give definite values of x and y.
Or, 2x + 2y can be found out.
Hence Sufficient.

Cancel E. Right Answer Is Option C.
