If bin A contains exactly twice as many potatoes as bin B, and if bin A contains exactly 11 more potatoes than bin C, does bin B contain more potatoes than bin C ?
(1) The difference between the number of potatoes in bin C and the number in bin A is greater than the number of potatoes in bin B.
(2) If one potato were added to bin A and to bin C, bin A would contain exactly twice as many potatoes as bin C.
a. Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient to answer the question asked.
b. Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient to answer the question asked.
c. BOTH statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are sufficient to answer the question asked; but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient.
d. EACH statement ALONE is sufficient to answer the question asked.
e. Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient to answer the question asked, and additional data specific to the problem are needed.
