A survey shows that 6363 % of the people in a city read newspaper AA whereas 7676 % read news paper BB. If xx % of the people read both the newspapers, then a possible value of xx can be:

Options

  1. A2929
  2. B3737
  3. C6565
  4. D5555

Correct answer

D. 5555

Step-by-step solution

n(A)=63n\left(A\right) = 63

n(B)=76n\left(B\right) = 76

n(A∩B)=xn\left(A \cap B\right) = x

Let n(∪)=100n\left(\cup \right) = 100

n(A∪B)=n(A)+n(B)−n(A∩B)≤100n\left(A \cup B\right) = n\left(A\right) + n\left(B\right) - n\left(A \cap B\right) \le 100

⇒63+76−x≤100⇒ 63 + 76 - x \le 100

⇒x≥39⇒ x \ge 39

But n(A∩B)≤n(A)n\left(A \cap B\right) \le n\left(A\right)

∴39≤x≤63∴ 39 \le x \le 63 .
