Q: do more students at the school study French than Japanese?

Stmnt 1 -
16 students at the school study both French and Japanese.

let total students studying french = X then given 4%(X) --> (4/100)*X = 16 ==> X = 400. Thus, Yes. Hence SUFFICIENT

Stmnt 2 -
10 percent of the students at the school who study Japanese also study French.

We don't have total number of students in the school or number of students studying japnese to answer the question. NOT SUFFICIENT

Hence pick: A
