Set A is of people who own ambassadors.
n(A) = 200
Set F is of people who on fiats
n(F) = 400

It is given that n(A Intersection F) = 50

The total number of people is n(A union F)
And we know that n(A union F) = n(A) + n(F) - n(A intersection F)
=200 + 400-50
= 550

Another way to look at it is when we add the number of people who own ambassadors(200) to the number of people who own fiats(400) we are counting the people who own both twice. Hence we subtract the number of people who own both once

Dude there is a formula in Sets i.e

n(A) + n(B) - n(A intersection B) = n(AUB) i.e the total people surveyed...

When you put the values of the question in the above formula, you get the answer as 550

Intersection is referred to as common between both parameters i.e A and B.
