(d) The question cannot be answered even by using both

There can be many values of x and y for which = odd.
Exp. (a) Since, the age of each of P and Q is less than
100 yr, but more than 10 yr, so it is between 11 yr and 99 yr. 6
Let age of P be ab.

Difference of there ages =(10a + b) - (10b + a) Statement II xy =12
=9a-9b =9(a-b) Possible values’1x12 = 12
which will have many possible values. 2x6 = 12
Statement I is not enough to answer the question. 3x4 =12
Statement II So, we cannot find unique values of x and y from this

=11a+ 11b = 11(a +b) Now,
Now, 11 On considering both the statements together
11(a+ b)=x{9(a-
6 b)} For x =6 and y =2
2a+2b =3a-3b X 6
=3 =odd
a=5b y 2
Here, the only possible value of b = 1because if we take and xy =6x2 = 12
b=2, a = 10, which is not possible. So, on considering both the statements together, unique
.P=51 and O= 15 and difference =51-15=36 values of x and y can be found out.
