Total number of guests in wedding = 250

Guest had custard = 100

Guest had Ice-Cream = 120

Guest had Ice Cream and Custard = 20

Therefore, guests had only custard = (100 – 20) = 80

The guests had only Ice-creams = (120 – 20) = 100

∴ The guest who hadn’t ice cream or custard with their dessert = 250 – (100 + 80 + 20)

⇒ 250 – 200

⇒ 50
