Out of a total of 120 musicians in a club, 5% can play all three instruments - guitar, violin and flute. It so happens that the number of musicians who can play any two and only two of the above instruments is 30. The number of musicians who can play the guitar alone is 40. What is the total number of those who can play violin or flute alone? Correct Answer 44
Total number of Musicians = 120
Number of Musicians who play all three instruments = 120* 5/100 = 6.
Number of Musicians who play any two and only two instruments = 30.
Number of Musicians who play Guitar = 40.
Therefore, Number of Musicians who play Violin or Flute alone = 20 - (40 + 30 + 6) = 120 - 76 = 44
Hence, the answer is 44.
