1.	II. The ratio of P and Q is less than 2.1). The data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.2). The data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.3). The data in statement I alone or in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.4). The data in both the statements I and II is not sufficient to answer the question.
Answer» From statement I: Difference between P and Q is 29. To find what percentage of P and Q, ratio of P and Q is REQUIRED. It cannot be found with this information. ∴ Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question. From statement II: Ratio of P and Q is less than 2. To find what percentage of P and Q, ratio of P and Q is required. It can be found that ratio is less than 2 but exact ratio cannot be found with this information. ∴ Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question. From STATEMENTS I and II together: Difference between P and Q is 29. Ratio of P and Q is less than 2. So, P - Q = 29 and P < 2Q or Q - P = 29 and P < 2Q. To find what percentage of P and Q, ratio of P and Q is required. The exact ratio cannot be found with this information. ∴ Using EVEN both the statements together, we cannot answer the given question.

II. The ratio of P and Q is less than 2.1). The data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.2). The data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.3). The data in statement I alone or in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.4). The data in both the statements I and II is not sufficient to answer the question.

Answer»

From statement I:

Difference between P and Q is 29. To find what percentage of P and Q, ratio of P and Q is REQUIRED. It cannot be found with this information.

∴ Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From statement II:

Ratio of P and Q is less than 2. To find what percentage of P and Q, ratio of P and Q is required. It can be found that ratio is less than 2 but exact ratio cannot be found with this information.

∴ Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From STATEMENTS I and II together:

Difference between P and Q is 29. Ratio of P and Q is less than 2.

So, P - Q = 29 and P < 2Q or Q - P = 29 and P < 2Q. To find what percentage of P and Q, ratio of P and Q is required. The exact ratio cannot be found with this information.

∴ Using EVEN both the statements together, we cannot answer the given question.
