C. 860. A survey carried out on a sample of 500 revealed that 46% of those asked liked strawberry ice cream, 71% liked vanilla and 85% liked chocolate ice cream. Is there anyone in the sample who likes all three flavours?

Sorry, the solution is published in Hungarian only.

Megoldás: Van.

A Venn-diagram alapján a következő egyenleteket írhatjuk föl:

a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h=500,

a+b+f+g=0,46.500=230,

b+c+d+g=0,71.500=355,

d+e+f+g=0,85.500=425.

Ezek alapján

500-(230+355+425)=-510=(a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h)-(a+b+f+g)-(b+c+d+g)-(d+e+f+g)=h-(b+d+f+2g).

Vagyis (b+d+f+g)+g=500+(10+h), és mivel b+d+f+g legfeljebb 500, a jobboldal viszont legalább 510, ezért g legalább 10. Vagyis legalább 10 olyan ember van, aki mind a háromféle fagylaltot szereti.
