Let the set of people who drink tea be T
and the set of people who drink coffee be C
We have all people either drinking one of the 2, so we can write
n(T∪C) = 45 i.e 45 people either drink tea or coffee
and we also have
(i) n(T) = 35
n(C) = 20
We have formula
n(T∪C) = n(T) + n(C) - n(T∩C)
45 = 35 + 20 - n(T∩C)
n(T∩C) = 55 - 45 = 10 i.e 10 people like both tea and coffee
(ii) People who dont like coffee will be the part of set T and excluding the part of intersection of T and C, so we have
n(T) - n(T∩C) = people who dont like coffee
35 - 10 = 25
Therefore, 25 people dont like coffee
(iii) Similarly, People who dont like tea will be the part of set C and excluding the part of intersection of T and C, so we have
n(C) - n(T∩C) = people who dont like tea
20 - 10 = 10
Therefore, 10 people dont like tea.
