S2-16 What fractional part of the total surface area of cube C is red?

(1) Each of 3 faces of C is exactly red.
(2) Each of 3 faces of C is entirely white.

A should be ans here.

From 1 : surface area of red face=3a^2 (assume a is side)
total surface area=6a^2

so sufficient
From 2:no idea about red face.so insufficient.

Hey Amit,

There is small mistake, please read the question below -

S2-16 What fractional part of the total surface area of cube C is red?

(1) Each of 3 faces of C is exactly 1/2 red.
(2) Each of 3 faces of C is entirely white.

I would say is C because in (1) we know that 1,5 out of 3 faces are red but we don't know wether the other 3 gfaces are red. In (2) we don't know anything about the red faces. Putting togheter (1) and (2) we know the colour of the 6 faces.

Yeah...!! I think explanation is very logical. We don't need to put formulas to solve this question.
