For Statement #1:
You could have a list of 0,2,0 or 0,0,0 - Insufficient.
Statement #2:
I think is sufficient.
I couldn't come up a list besides all 0s that's always summed up to zero.

Can you have a list that contains [2,-2] ? Here too, the sume would be zero ?
No where it is mentioned that , the list should contain positive numbers.
OA is B, but i cant understand this. M i missing something here ?
Remember the set contains more than 2 numbers so for any 2 numbers to add to zero, all the numbers would have to be 0

How about a list having [2,3,4,-4] ?
Here as per the second condition, the sum of any two numbers is 0.
2+3=5How about a list having [2,3,4,-4] ?
Here as per the second condition, the sum of any two numbers is 0.
3+4=7
4+(-4)=0
2+4=6
2+(-4)=-2
These are sums very different from 0.[/quote]
