Hi All !!! Could anyone help me with this, please?

Thanks in advance:

Is x <= 3 ?

1. 6x<= 24
2. 3x+1>=12

The answer is supposed to be D, but I dont get the point, I should tried B ...

I dont understand the D since 1 states that x <= 4, so it could be less than 3 or between 3 and four so I think is not sufficient ...

Yes, you're right- statement 1 is not sufficient as written. Where is the question from?

Is from a GMAT test software in the particular school I study in Spain ... So I will check with the software administrator. Thank you very much!!!
