Number x is obtained by inserting two "+"s into the ordered numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, for example, 1+23+45=69. Is x odd?
(1) x>100
(2) x<300
(1) x>100
(2) x<300
Statement 1:
x > 100
x = 1 + 2 + 345 = 348 (EVEN)
x = 1 + 234 + 5 = 240 (EVEN)
x = 123 + 4 + 5 = 132 (EVEN)
No matter where you place the + signs, x will always be even and NOT ODD ==> Sufficient
Statement 2:
x < 300
1 + 23 + 45 = 69 (ODD)
1 + 234 + 5 = 240 (EVEN)
Multiple answers and cannot say with certainty ==> Not Sufficient
OA should be A
Hope that helps.
