Let x be total capacity.

STmt 1: Total added = (9/10)*x - (1/3)*x, but x is unknown, hence insufficient.
Stmt 2: Initial level = 32 = (1/3)*x, x can be found, but final level of tank not given, so cannot find how many litres added, hence insufficient.

Combined: x can be found from stmt 2, total added can be then found from stmt 1, hence sufficient.

Option C IMO, not sure why OA is D
