In a group of 65 people, 40 like cricket, 10 like both cricket and tennis. How many like tennis only and not cricket? How many like tennis?
Let T be the set of people who like Tennis,
and C be the set of people who like Cricket.
Number of people who like Cricket = n(C) = 40
Number of people who like at tennis or Cricket = n(T ∪ C ) = 65
Number of people who like both tennis and Cricket = n(T ∩ C )
= 10
Number of people who like Tennis = n(T)
We know that-
n(T ∪ C) = n(T)+ n(C) - n(T ∩ C)
⇒ 65 = n(T)+40 - 10
⇒ 65 = n(T)+30
⇒ n(T) = 65-30
∴ n(T) = 35
Thus, the number of people who like tennis = 35
Now,
The number of people who like tennis only and not cricket
= Number of people who like Tennis
- Number of people who like both tennis and Cricket
= n(T) - n(T ∩ C )
= 35-10
= 25
