In other words, n is an ODD MULTIPLE OF 36 between 100 and 200.
It's possible that n = 3*36 = 108.
It's possible that n = 5*36 = 180.
Since n can be different values, INSUFFICIENT.
Statement 2:
In other words, n is an EVEN MULTIPLE OF 45 between 100 and 200.
Here, only one option is possible:
n = 4*45 = 180.
SUFFICIENT.
The correct answer is B.
