GATE CS 2015 Set 2 QGA-5 — General Aptitude

Let the weight of each pole be $w$ kg. We need to find the total weight of $10$ poles, which is $10w$.

Analyzing Statement I:

"One fourth of the weight of the pole is $5\text{ kg}$."

The total weight of $10$ poles is $10 \times 20 = 200\text{ kg}$.
Thus, Statement I alone is sufficient.

Analyzing Statement II:

"The total weight of these poles (10 poles) is $160\text{ kg}$ more than the total weight of two poles."

The total weight of $10$ poles is $10 \times 20 = 200\text{ kg}$.
Thus, Statement II alone is sufficient.

Since either statement alone is sufficient to determine the total weight, the correct option is C.
