The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use a Venn diagram to organize the information provided about the preferences of passengers regarding coffee, tea, and lassi. We will break down the percentages step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Total Percentage of Passengers**: - Given that 5% of passengers do not like coffee, tea, or lassi, this means that 95% of passengers like at least one of the three beverages. 2. **Set Up the Venn Diagram**: - Let: - \( C \) = percentage of passengers who like coffee - \( T \) = percentage of passengers who like tea - \( L \) = percentage of passengers who like lassi - We know: - \( C = 55\% \) - \( T = 50\% \) - \( L = 50\% \) 3. **Fill in the Information from the Problem**: - 10% like all three beverages (Coffee, Tea, and Lassi). - 20% like both coffee and tea. - 25% like both lassi and coffee. - 25% like both lassi and tea. 4. **Calculate the Percentages for Only Two Beverages**: - For Coffee and Tea (20% total): - Those who like only Coffee and Tea = \( 20\% - 10\% = 10\% \). - For Lassi and Coffee (25% total): - Those who like only Lassi and Coffee = \( 25\% - 10\% = 15\% \). - For Lassi and Tea (25% total): - Those who like only Lassi and Tea = \( 25\% - 10\% = 15\% \). 5. **Calculate the Percentages for Only One Beverage**: - Total liking Coffee = 55%: - Those who like only Coffee = \( 55\% - (10\% + 10\% + 15\%) = 55\% - 35\% = 20\% \). - Total liking Tea = 50%: - Those who like only Tea = \( 50\% - (10\% + 15\% + 10\%) = 50\% - 35\% = 15\% \). - Total liking Lassi = 50%: - Those who like only Lassi = \( 50\% - (10\% + 15\% + 15\%) = 50\% - 40\% = 10\% \). 6. **Summarize the Findings**: - Only Coffee: 20% - Only Tea: 15% - Only Lassi: 10% - Coffee and Tea only: 10% - Lassi and Coffee only: 15% - Lassi and Tea only: 15% - All three: 10% - No preference: 5% 7. **Calculate the Percentage of Passengers Who Like at Least Two Beverages**: - At least two beverages means we consider those who like: - Coffee and Tea only: 10% - Lassi and Coffee only: 15% - Lassi and Tea only: 15% - All three: 10% - Total = \( 10\% + 15\% + 15\% + 10\% = 50\% \). ### Final Answer: The percentage of passengers who like at least two of coffee, tea, and lassi is **50%**.
