chocolate nor like cricket.How many people like both cricket and chocolate ?
Read Solution (Total 24)
-
- (choc union cric)=choc + cric -(choc intersection cric)
(38-20)=10+15-(choc intersection cric)
so,
(choc intersection cric)= people like both cricket and chocolate = 7 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(68) No(1)
- 7 people
People likes either chocolate or cricket=38-20=18
Peoples that likes both cricket and chocolate=(10+15)-18=7
Peoples like only Chocolate=10-7=3
People like only cricket=15-7=8
- 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(43) No(1)
- 7 people
People likes either chocolate or cricket=38-20=18
Peoples that likes both cricket and chocolate=(10+15)-18=7
Peoples like only Chocolate=10-7=3
People like only cricket=15-7=8

- A+B-(Total-those who do not take both) ,15+10(38-20) =7
Answer is 7

- N(AUB)=N(A)+N(B)+N(AnB)-BOTH(AnB).....38=10+15+20-X THEN X=7

- no of choclate drinkers =10,no of cricket fans=15,total no of people=38,no of people who dont like choclate and cricket both =20,it means no of people who like either choclate or cricket =38-20=18,so total no of people who like both cricket and choclate =15+10-18=7

- either cricket or chocolate like members=no.of people like chocolate+no.of people like cricket-both cricket and chocolate fans
here total=38 people
from this 20 can not like both,means either cricket or chocolate like members are=38-20
therefore,
18=10+15-(both chocolate and cricket fans)
s0,the answer is=7 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- 18=10+15-(aand b)
=>-5=-(aandb)

- let A=like chocolate=10
B=like cricket=15
A intersection B= no of people like neither chocolate or cricket = 20

Peoples like only Chocolate=10-7=3
People like only cricket=15-7=8 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- 38-(10-x)-(15-x)-x=20
solve for x.
ans x=7 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)

- n(A)=10,n(B)=15,n(AUB)=38-20=18
n(AUB)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A intersection B)
18=10+15-x
18=25-x
x=7
so,7 is the answer - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- total = 38.
a ( drink chocolate ) = 10
b ( like cricket ) = 15
niether like choc. not like cricket = 20
therefore, we are left with people who only like one of the 2 mentioned things. Hence, 38-20 = 18.
Now people who like both
as
a union b = a + b - a intersection b
a intesection b = -a union b+ a +b
= 15+10-18
= 7 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
