C.
Either I or II alone sufficient to answer |
D.
Both I and II are not sufficient to answer |
E.
Both I and II are necessary to answer |
Answer : Option B
Explanation :
I. Total candidates interviewed by 3 panels = (15 x 3) = 45.
II. Let x candidates be interviewed by C.
Number of candidates interviewed by A = (x + 2).
Number of candidates interviewed by B = (x + 1).
x + (x + 2) + (x + 1) = 45
3x = 42
x = 14
Hence, the correct answer is (B).
