By what percent has the price of an overcoat been reduced?

(1) The original price was $380.

(2) The original price was $50 more than the reduced price.

IMo C

We need the old Price and the new price to solve this Problem

(1) The original price was $380.
Insufficient , We dont know about new price

(2) The original price was $50 more than the reduced price.
Insufficient , We dont know about Old price

Combine
380 = New price + 50

New Price = 330
Old Price = 380

So C
