Answer:

39 read all three news papers,72 Exactly two Papers & 52 reads  Guardian Alone

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given, A survey of 290 newspaper readers.

Who read the Daily times A=181  

Who read the Guardian times B=142  

Who read the punch C=117

Who read Daily Times and the Guardian A\cap B= 75

Who read Daily Times and the punch A\cap C=60

Who read Guardian and punch B\cap C=54

To find :

How many readers read All three papers, Exactly two of the papers The Guardian alone?

Solution :

Readers read all three papers is $A\cap B\cap C$

Total survey is given by,

Total = $A+B + C- A\cap B- A\cap C - B\cap C+ A\cap B\cap C$

290 = $181 + 142 + 117 - 75 -60 - 54 +A\cap B\cap C$

290 =$251+A\cap B\cap C$

290-251=$A\cap B\cap C$

$A\cap B\cap C=39$

So, number of readers who read all three papers is 39.

Exactly two of the papers = 36 + 21 + 15 = 72

Guardian Alone = 52
