(1) The "Bar Model Method" is something out of your textbook; we don't know what it is.

(2) The problem can't be solved using ANY method, because there is not enough information.

(3) and, by the way, questions are answered and problems are solved; you can't solve a question.

Re-post if you have left something out of your statement of the problem. If the problem as you show it is exactly as it was given to you, then it is defective.
