By using Statement I.
It is not clear that how many successful hits each player has made. So the exact scoring can’t be calculated. Therefore by using only Statement I, we can’t derive the answer.
By using statement II:
For 1st player, if only 3 shots are successful, maximum score = 5+4+3 = 12.
For 2nd player, if only 2 shots are successful, maximum score = 2+1 =3 since rest three balls are already been put into the pocket by the 1st player.
Therefore the maximum score = 12.
Therefore by using statement II only, we can answer the question.
Therefore (a).
