The problem can be solved using Venn Diagram Approach
Here,
a = Athletes owning a convertible only
b = Athletes owning a big screen tv only
c = Athletes owning a sporting good store only
g = Athletes owning a convertible and big screen tv and sporting good store
d+g = Athletes owning a convertible and sporting good store
g+e = Athletes owning a big screen tv and sporting good store
f+g = Athletes owning a convertible and big screen tv
Given Information:
g = 12
f+g = 64
g+e = 36
d+g = 26
a+d +g +f = 122 (Athletes owning a convertible)
b +f + g + e = 104 (Athletes owning a big screen tv)
c +d +g + e = 117 ( Athletes owning a sporting goods store)
From the above equations,
g = 12 , f = 52 , e = 24 , d = 14 , a = 44 , b =16, c =67
A. Athletes owned a convertible or TV
Total number of athletes owning a convertible or TV = 44+52+16+14+12+24 = 162
B) Athletes owning a convertible and TV but not a store
Total number of athletes owning a Convertible or TV = 52
C) Athletes owning exactly one item in the survey
Total athletes owning exactly one item = 44 + 67 + 16 = 127
D) Athletes owning a tv or store but not convertible
Total Athletes owning a big screen tv or a store = 67 + 24 + 16 = 107
