Q.1 In a group of 15 students 7 read French, 8 read English, while 3 of them read none of these two. How many of them read French & English both?
A) 0
B) 3
C) 4
D) 5
Ans. B
Let circles A & B represent people who read French & English respectively
X = Students who read French
Y = Students who read French & English both
Z = Students who read English
( X + Y + Z) + 3= 15
So, (X + Y + Z) = 15-3
=12
(X+Y) = 7
(Y+Z) = 8
Thus, (X+2Y+Z) =15
Subtracting 1 from 2
Y=15-12
=3

EXPLANATION:
Suppose the no. of persons= 100
On the basis of information:
(P+S+U+T) = 26…….(i)
(S+Q+U+V) = 25……(ii)
(T+U+V+R) = 14……(iii)
(S+U) = 11…..(iv)
(U+V) = 10……(v)
(T+U) =09…….(vi)
R =00…….(vii)
From eq. (iii),(vi) & (vii)
(T+U+V+R) = 14
9+V+0 = 14
V = 5
U = 5
From eq.(iii) we have
T+U+V+R = 14
T+5+5+0 = 14
T = 4
From (iv) we have
S =6
From (ii), we have
Q+6+5+5 = 25
Q = 9
P= 11
Q= 9
R= 0
S= 6
T= 4
U= 5
V= 5
