(1) The number of Chipmunks fans among the spectators is 20% greater than the number of Bullfrogs fans.
(2) The total number of spectators at the baseball game is 4,400.
The OA is A.
We have to find out the value of b/c.
Let's take each statement one by one.
(1) The number of Chipmunks fans among the spectators is 20% greater than the number of Bullfrogs fans.
Say b = 100, then c = 100 + 20% of 100 = 120
Thus, b/c = 100/120. Sufficient.
(2) The total number of spectators at the baseball game is 4,400.
We do not know how many of 4000 are Chipmunks fans and Bullfrogs fans. Insufficient.
The correct answer: A
Hope this helps!
