Further, \(30\%\) of those who read \(A\) but not \(B\) look into advertisements and \(40\%\) of those who read \(B\) but not \(A\) also look into advertisements, while \(50\%\) of those who read both \(A\)and \(B\) look into advertisements. Then the percentage of the population who look into advertisement is

  1. A \(12.8\)
  2. B \(13.5\)
  3. C \(13.9\)
  4. D \(13\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(13.9\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let population \(=\,100\) \(n(A)\, = \,25\) \(n(B)\, = \,20\) \(n(A \cap B)\, = \,8\) \(n(A \cap \bar B)\, = \,17\) \(n(\bar A \cap B)\, = \,12\) Now \(\%\) of th population who look advertisement \(=\,\frac {30}{100}\times 17\,+\) \(\frac {40}{100}\times 12\,+\)…
