in a survey 144 people, 83 people said they liked eggs, 65 people said they liked toast, 30 said they liked neither. how many people like both?
a 34
b 71
c 18
d 114
83+65-x = 144-30
To find out how many people like both eggs and toast, we need to consider the information given in the survey.
First, we know that 144 people participated in the survey. Out of these 144 people, 83 said they liked eggs and 65 said they liked toast.
Next, we know that 30 people said they liked neither eggs nor toast. This means that we need to subtract these 30 people from the total count who either like eggs or toast or both.
So, to find out how many people like both eggs and toast, we subtract the count of those who like neither from the total count of participants:
Total participants - People who like neither = People who like eggs or toast or both.
144 - 30 = 114
Therefore, the correct answer is d) 114.
