Out of a group of 25 tourists, 10 can speak Gujarati, 12 can speak Marathi, 5 can speak both Gujarati as well as Marathi. Identify the number of people who can neither speak Gujarati nor Marathi. Correct Answer 8

According to the given information,

Number of tourists = 25

10 can speak Gujarati and 12 can speak Marathi

5 can speak both the languages

Number of tourists who can speak only Gujarati = 10 – 5 = 5

Number of tourists who can speak only Marathi = 12 – 5 = 7

Drawing the Venn diagram,Number of tourists who can speak neither Gujarati nor Marathi = 25 – (5 + 5 + 7)
