ohh first of all i think the answer must be E but now yeah, A is sufficicent....when n =3 because only 3 fits the statement 1
n<10 so n can be from 1 to 9 but 1 is not mentioned cos 1/1=1
n=2 so 1/2=0,5 and n#5
n=3 so 1/3=0,3333 so n=3
so on we see that only n= 3 then 1/n or 1/3 is fit the statement 1
for statement 2
n can be 3 and 6
cos 1/6=0.166666 its fit to statement 2
so 2 is insufficient
hope you could understand what i wrote

Given: n is a positive integer less than 10.
Let's analyze the values of n and 1/n,

• n = 1 => 1/n = 1.00
  n = 2 => 1/n = 0.500
  n = 3 => 1/n = 0.333
  n = 4 => 1/n = 0.250
  n = 5 => 1/n = 0.200
  n = 6 => 1/n = 0.167
  n = 7 => 1/n = 0.142
  n = 8 => 1/n = 0.125
  n = 9 => 1/n = 0.111

Statement 1: n is equal to the tens' digit of 1/n.
Thus only possible value of n is 3.

Sufficient.

Statement 2: n is equal to the hundreds' digit of 1/n.
Possible values of n are 3 and 6.

Not sufficient.

The correct answer is A.
