Solution
Let A = set of students who failed in CET
B = set of students who failed in NEET
C = set of students who failed in JEE
X = set of all students
∴ n(X) = 200, n(A) = 35, n(B) = 40, n(C) = 40, (A ∩ B) = 20, n(B ∩ C) = 17, n(A ∩ C) = 15, n(A ∩ B ∩ C) = 5
No. of students who failed in NEET or JEE entrance
= n(B ∪ C)
= n(B) + n(C) – n(B ∩ C)
= 40 + 40 – 17
= 63
