twice that of P and
4/5 that of G.
(2) The average life span of G is 30
years longer than that of P and 10
years longer than that of S.

From (1) We can write S=2P and S=4G/5. This does not give us sufficient information. NOT SUFFICIENT
From (2) We can write
G=P+30 and
G=S+10

We cannot calculate "S" from the above eqns. NOT SUFFICIENT

Together, substitute the value of "G" from S=4G/5 into G=S+10
G=S+10
=> 5S/4 = S+10
=> S = 40

Similarly, you can subsitute S=2P and S=4G/5 in G=P+30.
Again you'll get the same ans, i.e. S=40

Hence, we get a unique answer in both the cases by taking (1)and(2) together.
Ans: (C)
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary" - Steve Jobs
