(2) Fewer than 25 packages were mailed at the post office yesterday.

statement 1)

14500 grams/# of packages

insufficient

statement 2)

X grams/(# of packages<25)

insufficient

Combined.

14,500 grams/(1<=packages<25)

You are seeing if after you divide 14,500 by 24 is the result greater than 600 grams on average. The answer is yes...and as check numbers less than 24, the average number of grams increases. So sufficient.
