Problem-Solving and Data-Sufficiency questions are intermingled throughout this GMAT section. Both types of questions require knowledge of arithmetic, algebra, and commonly known concepts of geometry.
GMAT Problem-Solving questions are designed to test basic math skills, understanding of elementary mathematical concepts, and the ability to reason quantitatively.

GMAT Data-Sufficiency questions are designed to measure your ability to analyze a quantitative problem, and determine at what point there is sufficient information to solve it.
Data-Sufficiency questions are accompanied by initial information and two statements. You must decide whether the statements given offer enough data to enable you to answer the question. You must choose one of the following 5 answers:
Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) is not sufficient.
Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) is not sufficient.
BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient.
EACH statement ALONE is sufficient.
Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.
