Target question: Is x greater than y?

Given: The range of the numbers in set S is X. The range of the numbers in set T is Y. All of the numbers in set T are also in Set S

Statement 1 contains no information about set T, so statement 1 is NOT SUFFICIENT
Statement 2 contains no information about set S, so statement 2 is NOT SUFFICIENT

Statements 1 and 2 combined
There are several conflicting scenarios that satisfy BOTH statements. Here are two:
Case a: set S = {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 4}, which means X = 3, and set T = {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1}, which means Y = 0. In this case, X IS greater than Y
Case b: set S = {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1}, which means X = 0, and set T = {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1}, which means Y = 0. In this case, X is NOT greater than Y
Since we cannot answer the target question with certainty, the combined statements are NOT SUFFICIENT

Answer: E
