    I got the first one incorrect. I chose D as the answer as it is clear that 595 is 35% or 1700 and the same can be derived from statement 2.
    I am unable to understand C as the answer. Has anyone done it?

    Hi Vivek,
    First statement tells you that cancellation was 45-31 days before departure. But it does not tell you the exact day which has been asked. Second statement only tells you that difference in amount is 15% which is for two cases here. You need both the statements.
