Download Solution PDFGiven:
Total number of children = 250
Number of children who likes to play cricket = 152
Number of children who likes to play football = 110
Number of students who play both cricket and football = 53
Concept used:
Number of children who do not like any of cricket or football = Total number of children – (Total number of people who likes cricket only and football only + Who likes both)
Calculation:
Number of children who plays cricket only = (152 – 53) = 99
Number of children who plays football only = (110 – 53) = 57
Total number of people who likes cricket only + football only + Who likes both = (99 + 57 + 20)
⇒ 209
Number of children who do not like any of cricket or football = 250 - 209
⇒ 41
∴ Number of children who do not like any of cricket or football is 41
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
