Explanation:

- Statement I provides the size of the software as 12 megabytes. Knowing only the size does not help calculate the download time without knowing the transfer rate.

- Statement II provides the transfer rate of 2.4 kilobytes per second. On its own, this doesn't provide the download time without knowing the software size.

- Using both statements together, you can calculate the time required by dividing the software size by the transfer rate.

- Option 1: Incorrect, as neither statement alone can answer the question.

- Option 2: Incorrect, because both statements are needed.

- Option 3: Correct, as both statements are needed together to answer the question.

- Option 4: Incorrect, because the question can be answered using both statements.
