1) Doesnt give much info. We do not know whether thursday is the third greatest.
2) Sat sells 38. Assume that friday sells 11. The maximum the 6 days(excluding sat) can sell = 11+10+9+8+7+6 = 51. total in the week = 51+38 = 89 less than 90. So Friday should have sold more than 11.
B sufficient

May be E? Because we don't have information about the row of numbers on Monday, Thusday ect. It may be like praky_rules said - 6,7,8,9,10, but may be different. We just know that: "Different number each day".
