The fastest method to solve this question

Well, just a small modification to what Cindy wrote. What she wrote is correct, but the below (alternate) formula will give you the answer sooner:

︱A∪B∪C︱�︱A︱＋︱B︱＋︱C︱� [The number of people in exactly two groups] - 2 *︱A∩B∩C︱

68 = 25 + 25 + 34 - x - 2*3

x = 10

Note: It's useful to know both the formulae. And, it's even more useful to know where they come from.

︱A∪B∪C︱�︱A︱＋︱B︱＋︱C︱� [The number of people in exactly two groups] - 2 *︱A∩B∩C︱

68 = 25 + 25 + 34 - x - 2*3

Hey Aneesh, as you said its important to know, "where they come from"

I didn't get why your multiplied 3 ( i.e. A∩B∩C ) with 2 before subtracting.

Thank you guys for your time.

Um, Draw a Venn Diagram (the three overlapping circles) to understand this.
If you name the three groups as A, B and C

|A U B U C| is all the area inside those circles.

so,

|A U B U C| = |A| + |B| + |C| - (what else?)

Since, the question is talking about the region for exactly two groups, let's subtract that region from the equation.

so,

|A U B U C| = |A| + |B| + |C| - [People in exactly two groups] -/+ (anything else?)

well now,

when we added the three groups A + B + C, we have counted the ︱A∩B∩C︱ region thrice. But we want it only once. So, WE WILL SUBTRACT IT TWICE.

So, now the final equation is

|A U B U C| = |A| + |B| + |C| - [People in exactly two groups] - 2*︱A∩B∩C︱

makes sense?

Use venn diagram to solve

You can solve it in this manner and in my opinion its the best and fastest way to solve it,
A∪B∪C︱�︱A︱＋︱B︱＋︱C︱� [people in exactly two groups] - 2 *︱A∩B∩C︱

68 = 25 + 25 + 34 - x - 2*3

x = 10
