in a survey of a tridelta chapte with 54 member, 20 were taking mathematics, 35 were taking English, and six were taking both. How many were not taking either subject?
Solution
Note that
N(math or english) = N(math) + N(english) - N(math and english)
Thus,
N(math or english) = 49
Thus, those who take neither is
N(neither math nor english) = N(population) - N(math or english)
= 54 - 49
= 5 [ANSWER]
