Data sufficiency questions require determining if the given information is enough to find a unique answer. To calculate the area of a rectangle, both its length and breadth must be known exactly. An inequality (like "not more than") does not provide a unique value.
Instructions : Decide whether the data given in statements I and II are sufficient or not to answer the given questions (Q. No. 194 – 195) : Mark the correct answer. What is the area of rectangle PQRS ? Statement – I: the breadth of rectangle is 18 cm Statement – II: The Length of Rectangle is not more than 20 cm
