s and t on a number line s+t=0
This can be rephrased as, Is lsl = ltl ?
Statement I
ls-0l = lt-0l
lsl = ltl
Hence Sufficient.
Statement II
0 is between s and t
s could be anything, t could be anything
Insufficient.
Hence A is the answer.
Whats the OA?

OA will be C
As, S also can be equal to T,means they can be same number, so we need B also to conclude the answer

Asnwer should be A.
s and t are two different numbers, and 0 is somewhere between them.
therefore, statement 2 is not sufficient.
