The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use the principle of inclusion-exclusion to find the percentage of workers who do not drink any of the three beverages (tea, coffee, or milk). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Variables:** - Let \( T \) be the percentage of workers who drink tea = 55% - Let \( C \) be the percentage of workers who drink coffee = 45% - Let \( M \) be the percentage of workers who drink milk = 40% - Let \( T \cap M \) be the percentage of workers who drink both tea and milk = 20% - Let \( C \cap M \) be the percentage of workers who drink both coffee and milk = 20% - Let \( T \cap C \) be the percentage of workers who drink both tea and coffee = 25% - Let \( T \cap C \cap M \) be the percentage of workers who drink all three beverages = 15% 2. **Use Inclusion-Exclusion Principle:** To find the total percentage of workers who drink at least one of the beverages, we can use the formula: \[ P(T \cup C \cup M) = P(T) + P(C) + P(M) - P(T \cap C) - P(T \cap M) - P(C \cap M) + P(T \cap C \cap M) \] Plugging in the values: \[ P(T \cup C \cup M) = 55 + 45 + 40 - 25 - 20 - 20 + 15 \] 3. **Calculate the Total:** \[ P(T \cup C \cup M) = 55 + 45 + 40 - 25 - 20 - 20 + 15 \] \[ = 140 - 65 + 15 \] \[ = 140 - 50 = 90 \] 4. **Find the Percentage of Workers Who Do Not Drink Any Beverage:** The total percentage of workers who do not drink any of the three beverages is: \[ 100\% - P(T \cup C \cup M) = 100\% - 90\% = 10\% \] ### Final Answer: The percentage of workers who do not like any of the three beverages is **10%**.
