Statement 1. \(N\) is the square of an integer!
But what integer?
\(2, 3, 4, 5\) Not Sufficient \(\Large{\color{red}\chi}\)

Statement 2: \(15 < n < 37\)
There are \(21\) no. Lie in between the equation. Which one is the \(N.\) Not Sufficient \(\Large{\color{red}\chi}\)

Statement 1 and 2: \(15 < n < 37 \& n\) is the square of an integer.
There are three square values existing between the values.
\(16, 25, 36\) (definitely not sufficient to know whether \(n\) is \(25\) or not) Not Sufficient \(\Large{\color{red}\chi}\)

Therefore, E
