(1) The grapefruit are always packed 5 to a bag and the bags are always packed 8 to a case.
Number of grapefruit per bag = 5
Number of bags per case = 8
Number of grape fruit per case = 8*5 =40
Sufficient!
(2) Each case is always 80 percent full
No data available.

IMO A

(1) No. of grapefruits packed = 5 * 8 = 40; SUFFICIENT.

(2) Each case is always 80 percent full but there is no info on the no. of grapefruits in the case; NOT sufficient.

The correct answer is A.
