1) The median of the numbers in Set S is 0.
2) The sum of the numbers in set S is equal to the sum of the numbers in set T.
If S is m, m + 1, m + 2, m + 3, and m + 4 then its median is m + 2, and if T is n, n + 1, n + 2, n + 3, n + 4, n + 5 and n + 6 then its median is n + 3. The question is: Is m + 2 = n + 3 or is m - n = 1? Let's findabhasjha wrote:Set S consists of five consecutive integers, and set T consists of seven consecutive integers.

I'm sorry for having that not seen before.stufigol wrote:so what s wrong ith shakan explanation? did he forget a detail...
I can see that shashank.ism must have misconstrued the statement (1) here, which is utterly for set S.Ans is B
S= n, n+1, ....n+4.
T= m, m+1,.....m+6
S1: if median = 0 so we can easily say S=-2,-1,0,1,2 , T = -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3 ------sufficient.
S2: sum of no. in set S = set T .. It exactly give soln
e.g. S=-2,-1,0,1,2 , T = -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3----sufficient
so ans is
D
1. Is insufficient - It does not say anything about the set Tabhasjha wrote:Set S consists of five consecutive integers, and set T consists of seven consecutive integers. Is the median of the numbers in set S equal to the median of the numbers in set T?
1) The median of the numbers in Set S is 0.
2) The sum of the numbers in set S is equal to the sum of the numbers in set T.
What if set S is {5, 6, 7, 8, 9} and set T is {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}?ajith wrote:1.

1) The median of the numbers in Set S is 0.
2) The sum of the numbers in set S is equal to the sum of the numbers in set T.
2. The sum of integers are the same
It is possible only when 5 members are the same and the next two members are on the either side
In which case the median are the same.
Sufficient

I agree, Mistake again... Little too hasty I suppose.... I am not writing GMAT with this hit ratesanju09 wrote:

If set S is {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2} and set T is {-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3}, then in my terminology, YES, m - n = 1; and if set S is {5, 6, 7, 8, 9} and set T is {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}, then in my terminology, NO, m - n ≠1. Insecurity reigns.
