The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Sets Let: - \( A \) = set of people who like city A - \( B \) = set of people who like city B - \( C \) = set of people who like city C Given data: - \( n(A) = 3700 \) - \( n(B) = 4000 \) - \( n(C) = 5000 \) - \( n(A \cap B) = 700 \) (people who like both A and B) - \( n(B \cap C) = 1200 \) (people who like both B and C) - \( n(A \cap C) = 1000 \) (people who like both A and C) ### Step 2: Use Inclusion-Exclusion Principle We need to find the number of people who like all three cities, denoted as \( n(A \cap B \cap C) \). Using the inclusion-exclusion principle, we can express the total number of people who like at least one city as follows: \[ n(A \cup B \cup C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(A \cap B) - n(B \cap C) - n(A \cap C) + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] ### Step 3: Set Up the Equation Substituting the known values into the equation: \[ n(A \cup B \cup C) = 3700 + 4000 + 5000 - 700 - 1200 - 1000 + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] \[ n(A \cup B \cup C) = 12700 - 2900 + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] \[ n(A \cup B \cup C) = 9800 + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] Since we know that the total number of surveyed people is 10000, we can set up the equation: \[ 10000 = 9800 + n(A \cap B \cap C) \] This simplifies to: \[ n(A \cap B \cap C) = 200 \] ### Step 4: Find the Number of People Liking Exactly Two Cities Now, we can find the number of people who like exactly two cities: - People who like A and B but not C: \[ n(A \cap B) - n(A \cap B \cap C) = 700 - 200 = 500 \] - People who like B and C but not A: \[ n(B \cap C) - n(A \cap B \cap C) = 1200 - 200 = 1000 \] - People who like A and C but not B: \[ n(A \cap C) - n(A \cap B \cap C) = 1000 - 200 = 800 \] Adding these gives the total number of people who like exactly two cities: \[ 500 + 1000 + 800 = 2300 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Percentage Now, we need to find the percentage of people liking exactly two cities out of those who like at least one city: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of people liking exactly 2 cities}}{\text{Total number of people}} \right) \times 100 \] \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{2300}{10000} \right) \times 100 = 23\% \] ### Final Answer The number of persons liking exactly two cities as a percentage of the number of people liking at least one city is **23%**. ---
