  (1/10)^n < 0.01 ?
  
  Lets simplify this equation.
  
  (1/10)^n < (1/10)^2
  
  n<2?
  
  (1) n>2 ======> Sufficient
  
  (2) 1/10(n-1) < 0.1
  
  n - 1 < 1
  
  n < 2 ======> Suffiient
  
  As both statements are sufficient answer is D

  this is an old question...not sure if this has been mentioned here before but request someone to make a small addition in the question
  
  I thought only 1 is raised to n and not the entire fraction 1/10...kindly add a bracket (1/10)^n to avoid any confusion
