of 800 surveyed students , 20 % of those who read book a also read book b and 25 % of those who read book b also read book a . if each student read at least one of the books , what is the difference between the number of students who read only book a and the number of students who read only book b ?
"say the number of students who read book a is a and the number of students who read book b is b . given that 20 % of those who read book a also read book b and 25 % of those who read book b also read book a , so the number of students who read both books is 0.2 a = 0.25 b - - > a = 1.25 b . since each student read at least one of the books then { total } = { a } + { b } - { both } - - > 800 = 1.25 b + b - 0.25 b - - > b = 400 , a = 1.25 b = 500 and { both } = 0.25 b = 100 . the number of students who read only book a is { a } - { both } = 500 - 100 = 400 ; the number of students who read only book b is { b } - { both } = 400 - 100 = 300 ; the difference is 400 - 300 = 100 . answer : e ."
