So, statement 1 doesn't talk about d at all.
So, this cannot be sufficient and statement 2 doesn't talk
about a at all.
We only know that a > b. Of course,
this is not sufficient. So, 1 and 2, quite intuitively,
are not sufficient.
So now, let's combine and see. c is midway between a
b. So, a > b. So, let's assume certain values.
Let's say a is 10 and a, 10 and b is, let's say, 2, so c is midway
between a and b,
so c becomes 6
here and d is midway between b and c,
so c becomes 4 here. a + b would be 10 + 2/
c + d would be, this is d, 6 + 4, that's 1.2.
What if these values are different?
I'm sure we'll get a different answer
I think. So, 2, no, why again 2, let's take something
like 6 and 12, 6 and let's say 22. So, c is, this is b and this
is a, c is midway between a and b, so 14.
This is c and d is midway between b and c,
so this is d.
So, a + b is 22 + 6 = 28 here. c + d is 10 + 14 = 24
here, which is not 1.2. So, even combining does not work and the answer
is option E.
