Bicucle Factory

by heshamelaziry » Fri Sep 18, 2009 10:25 pm
The Cyclepaths Bicycle Factory has 300 bicycles in stock. The bicycles are either blue or red, and they come in two sizes: large and small. If 175 of the bicycles are blue, and 140 are large, how many are both blue and large?

(1) There 90 small red bicycles.

(2) There are twice as many small blue bicycles as there are large red bicycles.

I get D.
A or B alone is sufficient.
