1) any refind number must be divisible by 22
2) A refined number is any even multiple of 11

I guess this is a DS problem posted in wrong forum.

Anyway, the required probability = (Number of refined numbers in first 1000 positive integers)/1000
Hence, we need to know what is refined number and how many of them are in the first 1000 positive integers.

Statement 1: This is not a complete definition of refined number. There may be some other criteria like divisible by 3 or perfect square or sum of digits equal to 9 to be a refined number. Hence, we cannot find out the number of refined number in the first 1000 positive integers.

Not sufficient

Statement 2: Now we know that any even multiple of 11 is a refined number. Hence, we can find out the number of even multiples of 11 in the first 1000 positive integers.

Sufficient

The correct answer is D.
