Problem
Of all CAT aspirants, 80% spend time for Quant whereas 60% spend time for verbal. If only those users will crack CAT who spend time for both, what percentage of CAT aspirants
Solution
QA = 80 VA = 60
QA = 80 => a+c = 80 -> (1) VA = 60 => b+c = 60 -> (2) Now, a+b+c+n = 100 As n = 0 , a+b+c = 100 -> (3)
a+b+2c = 140
n= 0
Only QA Both QA & VA Only VA
Not QA or VA = 0
