Problem Solving

Agree with dbart06. There's only one person left for cooking and weaving.

Anyone to discuss about the way this type of question is constructed by the gmat? Is it always in the same way of thinking?

You can understand the question in two ways:
Either you understand 4 only study both cooking and yoga or you understand 4 people are in cooking and yoga which let them the possibility to also participate in weaving.

This sentence is irrelevant: "4 of them study both the cooking and yoga" and the question as well...

but I believe ans is 5 . I wish I can upload the venn diagram for explanation.

I believe OA is wrong answer shld be '5'

Can someone use paint to show the solution with 5 circles?

Here is one with 3, does this satisfy the question?

Can someone with experience of gmat questions can clarify the sentence problem of this question?

A.1 B.2 C.3 D.4 E.5

Pls explain the soln also ..

This isn't official GMAT because the wording is terrible. If the sentence was correct, the author would employ parallel construction and reduce the pronoun ambiguity. I wouldn't sweat it if I were you...
