Direction: A survey was conducted to find the career choices of students after intermediate. 100 students chose Engineering, 50 chose Medical, and 100 chose Arts. If 10 students chose both Engineering and Medical, and 3 chose Medical and Arts, with 3 not pursuing further studies, what is the total number of students surveyed?
Question 6: Find the total number of students on which the survey is conducted.
(a) 250
(b) 230
(c) 240
(d) 238

Correct Answer is Option (c)
The total number of students is calculated by adding all those pursuing various courses and considering overlaps, resulting in 240 students.

Question 7: How many students pursued both Medical and Arts?
(a) 5
(b) 2
(c) 3
(d) 4

Correct Answer is Option (c)
The Venn diagram for the survey indicates that 3 students pursued both Medical and Arts.

The region VI shows the student that goes for both Medical and Arts. So, n(B ∩ C) = 3.

Question 8: How many students pursued only engineering courses?
(a) 90
(b) 95
(c) 100
(d) 93

Correct Answer is Option (a)
After accounting for those students who pursued both Engineering and Medical, 90 students pursued only Engineering.

(b) 140
(c) 160
(d) No of the above

The region I, II, III, IV, V, and VI shows the student that goes for Engineering or Medical. So, the required number of students is 140.

Question 10: How many students pursued either Engineering or Arts?
(a) 150
(b) 200
(c) 190
