In a club of 100 members, 80 swim, 75 cycle, and 70 run. What is the least possible number of members who do all three?

  1. 5
  2. 25
  3. 45
  4. 75

Answer

B. 25

Solution

The members who do NOT swim, cycle, or run number 20, 25, and 30. At most 20+25+30=75 members are missing at least one activity, so at least 100-75=25 do all three (attained when those groups do not overlap).
