S1: Carry lookahead adder is faster compared to a ripple carry adder- TRUE

Since in CLA adder,carry will be calculated in the same time(cycle) and each and every bit need not wait for the carry from addition of previous bit

S2: The cost is higher for a carry lookahead adder compared to a ripple carry adder-TRUE

Since CLA adder requires more AND and OR gates than the ripple carry adder,the cost will be high

(C) Both are correct
