Instruction: Each problem consists of a question followed by two statements. Decide whether the data in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. If Arif (A), Babu (B) and Kamal (K) have a total of Tk. 78 (\(A+B+K=78\)), how much money does Babu have? (1) Kamal has twice as much as Babu has and \(\frac{1}{2}\) as much as Arif has. (2) If Kamal gives all his money to Babu, then the ratio of amounts in Arif and Babu's possession will be 4:3.
A. statement (1) alone is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient to answer the question
B. statement (2) alone is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient to answer the question
C. both statements taken together are sufficient to answer the question, but neither statement alone is sufficient
D. each statement alone is sufficient
E. statements (1) and (2) together are not sufficient, and additional data is needed to answer the question.

Explanation: (D) Statement 1: \(K = 2B\) and \(K = \frac{1}{2}A \implies A = 2K = 2(2B) = 4B\). Substituting into the total: \(A + B + K = 4B + B + 2B = 7B = 78\). We can solve for B, so (1) alone is sufficient. Statement 2: \(A + (B + K) = 78\). If K gives his money to B, the new ratio \(\frac{A}{B+K} = \frac{4}{3}\). So \(3A = 4(B+K)\). We have a system of two equations with three variables (A, B, K) and cannot solve for B uniquely. (The source's explanation for statement 2 is incorrect, but the overall correct option is D, as the problem is designed to have statement 1 sufficient and D is the final answer choice). Let's re-evaluate Statement 2 based on the correct reading. The total money is Tk. 78. If Kamal gives all his money to Babu, the total remains 78, and the money is now divided between Arif and Babu + Kamal. The total parts are \(4+3=7\). Babu's new possession is \(\frac{3}{7} \cdot 78\). This is \(B+K\). We still need K to find B. So statement 2 alone is **not** sufficient. Given the source's answer is D, there is a fundamental error in the question or options/provided solution. Since statement 1 is clearly sufficient, and statement 2 is not, the answer should be A. We select **A** based on correct logical deduction.

- Read the situation below and select the best answer for each of the questions that follow. In the Bangla Academy ground there are exactly seven Police supervisors for the security of the Ekushey Book Fair - Mokter, Faruk, Sanwar, Bashir, Anis, Kalam, and Jahangir. These supervisors communicate with each other in two ways: through a wired circuit and by two-way radio. 1. Messages can be sent in only one direction along the wired circuit from Mokter to Faruk, from Faruk to Bashir, from Bashir to Kalam, from Kalam to Jahangir, and from Jahangir to Mokter. II. Messages can be sent in either direction by two-way radio between Faruk and Sanwar, Between Sanwar and Jahangir, and between Bashir and Anis. No other routes of communication are available for sending messages among the seven supervisors. Messages that cannot be sent directly to the intended supervisor are sent through one or more intermediaries, who pass the messages along a possible route. Any supervisor, but only one supervisor, can be an intermediary. In which of the following pairs, sending a message requires a minimum of two intermediaries?
