answer of some of the questions is wrong. Plz correct them

Question:

DIRECTIONS: In each of the following questions, a question is followed by information given in three statements. You have to study the question along with the statements and decide, the information given in which of the statement (s) is necessary to answer the question?


What is the speed of the train?


I.  Train crosses a pole in 5 seconds.

II.  Length of the train is 120 meters.

III. Train crosses a platform  in 10 seconds


Options:
A) Only I and II.
B) Only II and III
C) All I, II and III
D) Any two of the three 
E) II and either I or III
Solution:

When a train crosses a pole, then

Speed of train = (Length of train)/(time  taken ) 

When a train crosses a platform, then speed of train

= (Length of platform +Length of train )/(Time taken)

Clearly, statement II and  I  required to determine the speed of train.

@Knowledge Expert - But where is Length of the platform given? How can you calculate using II and III? Your solution does not match with what is given in the question

its correct...

When a train crosses a pole, then
Speed of train = (Length of train)/(time taken )
When a train crosses a platform, then speed of train
= (Length of platform +Length of train )/(Time taken)
Clearly, statement II and either I or III are required to determine the speed of train.
