Q14 of 71 Page 30

Pradeep is a Section Chief for an electric utility company. The employees in his section cut down tall trees or climb polies recently reported the following information to the management of the utility.

Out of 100 employees in my section, 55 can cut tall trees,50 can climb poles, 11 can do both, 6 can’t do any of the two. Is this information correct?

Given


total no of employees n(U) = 100


No of Employees can climb and cut n(TP) = 11


No of employees can’t do any of the two n(TP)' = 6


No of employees can cut the tree n(T) = 55


No of employees climb the pole n(P) = 50



From the Venn diagram, we know that


Total no of employees n(U) = n(TP) + n(TP)'


= [44 + 11 + 39] + 6


= 100


So the given information is correct.
