Question #N622

A survey of 100 people found that 60 people liked apples, 40 people liked oranges, and 20 people liked both apples and oranges. How many people liked only oranges?
A. 10
B. 20
C. 30
D. 40

Correct Answer is: B

We can use a Venn Diagram to visualize the problem. There are 20 people who like both apples and oranges, so we subtract this number from the total number of people who like oranges to find the number of people who like only oranges: 40 - 20 = 20.
