参考答案
正确答案:D
D 解析:When we evaluate statement (1), we can tell that there are 10 brown cars in the lot, because that's the only number that would give us a ratio of 2:3 if there are 15 blue cars. So we can eliminate B, C, and E.
Taking statement (2) alone, we can tell that we have 15 blue and 10 brown cars in the lot, because those are the only numbers that would add up to 25 and give a ratio of 2:3. So either statement is sufficient on its own, which means D is the correct answer.
