Other than Venn diagram there is another method also 100 50 method if we solve according to that method than option E is correct.

Priya said:   9 years ago
I agree with you @Bala.

Option 1 & 2 follows.

Aaushi said:   9 years ago
In the above question, it is not compulsory that the remaining tables are radios.

It can be something else. In the same way, it is not compulsory that the remaining radios are tables.

So 1 and 2 not possible. And in 3 & 4 are talking about all radio and TV, whereas in question it's only about few. So E is the correct option.

Answer is correct. According to figure 2 we get conclusion 1 & 2 follows but its not in option (only 1 & 2 follows). So none of the four is correct.

Why not we consider second diagram meet?

Saurabh said:   1 decade ago
It mean we will have to use the diagram as per options.

Ramesh said:   1 decade ago
@Sabir and @Harry are correct.

If we solve with second diagram the total answer changes. If so what is the use the second one? else if second diagram holds the value?

Then how come (E) will be the answer? What about first diagram then?

Harry said:   1 decade ago
If we consider 2 diagram, it satisfies all the four options.

Then why is 'none of the above' correct answer?

Rajkasam said:   1 decade ago
Please let me know which is correct answer, and which diagram must be used to decide the answer.

According to 1st diagram option D is correct but according to 2nd diagram option varies.

Whenever you get in question some as the starting word in both the statements, then answer should be none.
