Q. There are 76 persons. 54 can read Hindu, 43 can read Times, 37 can read Deccan and 15 can read all. If 24 can read Hindu and Deccan and 27 can read Deccan and Times then what is the number of persons who read only Times and Hindu.
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- Let 'A'can be read Hindu,
Let 'B'can be read Times,
Let 'C'can be read Deccan,
From the given data:n(AuBuC)=76,n(A)=54,n(B)=43,n(C)=37,n(AnBnC)=15,n(AnC)=24,n(BnC)=27,n(AnB)=?
n(AuBuC)= n(A)+n(B)+n(C)-n(AnB)-n(BnC)-n(AnC)+n(AnBnC)
==> 76=54+43+37-n(AnB)-24-27+15
==> n(AnB)= 54+43+37+15-24-27-76
==> n(AnB)= 149-127
==> n(AnB)= 22 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(35) No(5)
- Let, A for hindu
B for times
c for Deccan
so
N(A u B u C)= N(A) + N(B) + N(C) - N(A n B) - N(B n C) - N(C n A) + N(A n B n C)
76 = 54 + 43 + 37 - N(A n B) - 24 -27 + 15
N(A n B) = 22
for only times and hindu,req.ans is ,N(A n B)-N(A n B n C)=22-15=7 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(10) No(0)

N(A n B) = 22 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(5)
- 22
76=76+54+43+37+15-24-27=x
