Answer:
I think you mean ‘one or the other’ rather than ‘both’ in the sentence,’If there who…’
Accepting that, let W be those who like W and S be those who like summer.
P(W or S) = 1
Also P(W or S) = P(W) + P(S) - P(W and S).
Hence, 1 = 0.85 + 0.65 - P(W and S).
Hence, P(W and S) = 1.5 - 1 = 0.5.
The percent who like both is P(W and S)= 50%
(ii)The percent who like winter only is 85% - 50% = 35%.
Another method :-
So, since we know that zero people liked neither, there must be 100%-85%=15% of the people who do not like winter and so like only summer. The remaining 65% who like summer must also like winter.
