    (1) p - s = 244

    (2) pt = 7,552

    The amount after two deductions is p - (t%) p-s

    we get p-s from (1) but we don't know p (t%), which is insufficient

    we get pt from (2), it means p (t%) = 7552/100. But we don't know p-s, it is insufficient.

    combining the two data, we can get p - (t%) p-s. Therefore, the ans is C
