Solution
Let T, E and H represent families buying Tamil newspaper, English newspaper and Hindi newspaper respectively.
n(T) = 275, n(E) = 150, n(H) = 45
n(T ∩ E) = 125, n(E ∩ H) = 17, n(T ∩ H) = 5
n(T ∩ E ∩ H) = 3
Let us represent the given data in Venn diagrams.
Number of families buy only one newspaper
= 148 + 11 + 26
= 185
