Directions: Read the following passage and answer the questions given below: Out of a group of 50 persons, 18 go to work by train and 26 go to work by bus. Eight people go neither by train nor by bus. How many people use exactly one of train or bus (not both) to go to work? A. 41 B. 44 C. 42 D. 40
Show answer & explanation
Answer: (A) D
