Answer:

Let U be the set of car owners investigated. M be the set of persons who owned car A and S be the set of persons who owned car B.

Given that,

                n (U) = 500 , n (M) = 400 , n (S) = 200 and n ( S ∩ M ) = 50

Then,

            n ( S ∪ M ) = n (S) + n (M) - n (S ∩ M) = 200 + 400 - 50 = 550

But S ∪ M ⊂ U implies n (S ∪ M) ≤ n (U).

This is a contradiction. So, the given data is incorrect.
