i5%families own both a car and a phone.

ii35%families own either a car or a phone.

Then,

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Let setAcontains families which own a phone and setBcontain families which own a car.

If65%families own neither a phone nor a car, then35%will own either a phone or a car

nAB=35%

Also we know that

nAB=nA+nB-n(AB)

35=25+15-n(AB)

nAB=5%

5%families own both phone and car and it is given to be2000.
5%  of x=2000

5x100 =2000

x=40000

Hence,i, iiandiiiare correct.
