Hi,
Statement 1:
16 students study F and J. There should be 400 students studying F. The number of J students could be any of 300 or 400 or 500 (lesser or greater? cannot tell).
Statement 2:
Let x be the number of students who study F and J.
x is 4% of F
x is 10% of J. This implies that J is definitely lesser than F.
Hence, sufficient.
Hope this helps. Thanks.
