    Question

    If 40% of the Delhites read Times of India, 50% read the Hindustan Times and 10% read both the papers, what percent of the people read neither newspaper?

    A.

    10%

    B.

    15%

    C.

    20%

    D.

    5%

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    40% of people read Times of India
    50% read Hindustan Times
    10% read both newspapers

    Formula:
    % of people who read at least one newspaper
    = % who read Times of India + % who read Hindustan Times – % who read both

    % who read neither
    = 100% – % who read at least one newspaper
    Solution:
    Find the percentage of people who read at least one newspaper

    = 40% + 50% - 10%
    = 80%

    Find the percentage of people who read neither newspaper

    = 100% - 80%
    = 20%

    Final Answer: (C) 20%
