this is data suff.
1) tells us nothing about j....insuff
2) only tells us that i=j insuff

if we take them together. we only know that i<10 & i=j insuff

IMO ans = E

1)
i could be odd or even and j could be odd or even
i<10 doesn't help

2)
i+j=i+i=2*i
Every odd or even integer multiplied by 2 is an even integer, it's sufficient.
--> B
