asked 05/27/20Q. In a survey conducted for three perfumes, it was found that 40% of the respondents used Fa, 25 % used Havoc, and 60 % used Byredo. 16% used none of the three perfumes, whereas 15% of the respondents used exactly two of the three perfumes.

Label perfumes A, H, B
Let AcHcBc = S1, AHcBc = S2, AcHBc = S3, AcHcB = S4, AHBc = S5, AHcB = S6, AcHB = S7, and AHB = S8
1)S1 + S2 + S3 + S4 + S5 + S6 + S7 + S8 = 1
2)S1 = .16
3)S2 + S5 + S6 + S8 = .4
4)S3 + S5 + S7 + S8 = .25
5)S4 + S6 + S7 + S8 = .6
6)S5 + S6 + S7 = .15
1 From the first two equations, 7) S2+S3+S4+S5+S6+S7+S8 = .84
If we add equations, 3, 4, and 5, and subtract 6 and 7, we get
2 S8 = .4 + .25 + .6 - .15 - .84
2S8 = .26
S8 = .13. Let's call this 8)
2 At least 2 equals exactly 2 or 3 = .15 + .13 = .28
3 If 22% used Havoc and Breedo, then 9) S7 + S8 = .22
Then, as 2) S2 + S5 + S6 + S8 = .4
6) S5 + S6 + S7 = .15
8) S8 = .13
9) S7 + S8 = .22
Equation 2 - Equation 6 + Equation 9 - 2 * Equation 7 gives you
S2 = .4 - .15 + .22 - 2 * .13
S2 = .21
