In a population of 100 persons, 40 persons like tea and 30 persons like coffee. 10 persons like both of them. How many persons like either tea or coffee?(a) 20(b) 40(c) 50(d) 60This question was posed to me in an interview for job.I'd like to ask this question from Venn Diagrams in chapter Sets of Mathematics – Class 11

Answer» CORRECT option is (d) 60

To explain: Given, a + B + C + d = 100, a + c = 40, b + c = 30, c = 10

b+10=30 => b=20

a + b + c = 40+20 = 60 i.e. 60 persons like either tea or COFFEE.
