In a survey of 600 students ina school, 150 students were found to be taking tea and 225 taking coffee, 100were taking both tea and coffee. Find how many students were taking neithertea nor coffee? |
Answer» Let universal set U is the set of all students of the survey and T is the set of student taking tea and C is the set of students taking coffee then `n(U)=600,n(T)=150,n(C)=225` and `n(T capC)=100` `:. n(T cup C)-n(T)+n(C)-n(T cap C)` `150 + 225 - 100` `= 275` Number of students who take neither tea nor coffee `= n(U)-n(T cup C)` `= 600-275 = 325` Therefore, 325 students take neither tea nor coffee. |
