1 is insufficient because that info does not tell us anything else about the students with either F or I.
2 is insufficient because it does not tell us anything about the people with P.
Taken together, they do shed some light on the whole thing, but still not enough. We do not know the ratio of students who received P versus the ratio of students who received either F or I, so we cannot calculate what is required.
