It fell on the 26th.

c) Either 1 or 2 is sufficient

Checking if the 1st statement alone is sufficient:

If 5th was the first Sunday,

Then the second Sunday was on the 12th.

In the same manner, the third Sunday was on the 19th.

Fourth and last Sunday on 26th.

Therefore statement 1 alone is sufficient.

Checking if the statement 2 alone is sufficient:

March ends with the 31st.

If it's on a Friday, then that would give us the

Last Thursday of the month: 30th

Last Wednesday of the month: 29th

Last Tuesday of the month: 28th

Last Monday of the month: 27th

Last Sunday of the month: 26th

Therefore statement 2 alone is also sufficient.

Hope this helps you!
