Answer 1

Answer: (C)

both statements are required to provide the answer.

Answer 2

From statement I we have
$D>A$and C
So, statement I alone is not sufficient to provide the answer.
From statement II we have $E>B>D$
So, statement II alone is not sufficient to provide the answer.
But using both statements we can find $E>B> D>A$ and C
So the correct option is (C)
