Test: Min/Max Problems - Question 1

In a certain class, all the students like at least one of the following TV shows: Game of Thrones, Friends, and Big Bang Theory. It was found that the percentage of students who like the shows are 55, 86, and 69 respectively. If x% of the students in the class like all three TV shows, what is the ratio of the maximum to the minimum value of x?

Detailed Solution for Test: Min/Max Problems - Question 1

Maximum Value

All = GOT + F + BBT - only GOT&F - only F&BBT - only GOT&BBT - 2 (GOT&F&BBT) + Neither

100 = 55 + 86 + 69 - only 2 - 2 (all 3) + 0

Only 2 + 2 (all 3) = 210 - 100

To maximise all 3, only 2 be 0

2 (all 3) = 110

all 3 = 55, which is equal to the min value of all 3 so it is possible

Minimum Value

Minimum Value of x means minimum overlap of all 3
That means max separation of all the sub-sets

So % of students not liking GOT = 45
% of students not liking F = 14
% of students not liking BBT = 31

% of students liking all 3 = 100 - 45 -14 -31 = 10

Alternatively, make a Venn diagram and try to fit the lowest value i.e. GOT (55) in the portion of only F and only BBT, the balance which cannot be placed goes into the 'all 3' portion. Same result, all 3 = 10

Ratio = 55/10
= 11/2
