Thanks hypik21,
It was poor reading from my part.
I read "product of their slopes negative" as product of slope is "-1" so was looking if the two lines are perpendicular.

I think it should be "D"
factors of 14 = 7*2
factors of 35 = 7*5
multiple of 2 &5 should have 0 as the units

Profit = SP-CP
Stmt 1: 20(2*SP-CP) = 2,400
from here we cant get SP-CP
so insufficient
Stmt 2: 20(SP+2-CP) = 440
==> SP-CP = 20
sufficient

IMO "A" is using "it" for and its referent is "profits" which is plural.sjd00d wrote:C for me. Bit more clarity on why A is wrong would help as i spent quite a bit of time going over A & C.
There might be few others but I eliminated "A" mainly because of that.

q=17
q/17=17/17=1 Remainder 0
Please correct me if I mis understood your statements.

Firstly,i choose D..But got confused in possessive pronoun 'his'. Since, possessive nouns can be replaced by possessive pronouns or vice-versa, so i eliminated D. And on the same basis, i choose E.
