Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Figure for the explanation of question 21

Given:

Total people = 100

Tea (T) = 60

Coffee (C) = 70

Both (T ∩ C) = 40

Only Tea = T − Both = 60 − 40 = 20

Only Coffee = C − Both = 70 − 40 = 30

People who like only Tea or only Coffee

= 20 + 30 = 50

Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
