Rephrase for data sufficiency

Is there a rephrase for this question:

Does abc = 1?

Not by itself, no, although you may glance at the statements to see whether you can figure out what the problem is testing overall. For instance, if the statements indicate that the problem is testing positive and negative, then that would tell you something about some possible characteristics for a, b, and c if they really do multiply to 1 - that sort of thing.
