Question

A group of 25 people are planning to get together to celebrate their 10 years of friendship. Out of them, 9 suggested to go to Goa, 8 suggested to go to Bangkok, XX suggested to go to Pondicherry and 3 of them did not suggest any place. Considering each person suggested only one place, what is the value of XX?

Answer 1

Answer:

TOTAL NO.OF PEOPLES = 25

NO.OF PEOPLE SUGGESTED TO GO GOA = 9

NO.OF PEOPLE SUGGESTED TO GO BANGKOK=8

NO.OF PEOPLE SUGGESTED TO GO PONDICHERRY = XX

NO.OF PEOPLE NOT SUGGESTED ANY PLACE=3

=9+8+XX+3=25

=20+XX=25

XX=25-20

XX=5

SO, 5 PEOPLE SUGGESTED TO GO TO PONDICHERRY.
