(1) Three people are standing in front of Alan and three people are standing behind David.
(2) Two people are standing between Alan and David.
Statements combined:
Case 1: Back<-----A, X, X, D----->Front
Here, there are two people between Alan and David (X, X), 3 people in front of Alan (X, X, D), and 3 people behind David (A, X, X).
Total number of people = 4.
Case 2: Back<-----
X, X, X, D,
X, X, A,
X, X, X----->Front
Here, there are two people between Alan and David (
X, X), 3 people in front of Alan (
X, X, X), and 3 people behind David (
X, X, X).
Total number of people = 10.
Since the total number of people can be different values, the two statements combined are INSUFFICIENT.
The correct answer is
E.
