Answer : 3. "23"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 23 Explanation: Let us assume the two persons who can speak two languages speak Hindi and Tamil. The third person then speaks all the three languages. Tamil – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Tamil 6 – 2 – 1 = 3 Hindi - Number of persons who can speak is 15. Only Hindi 15 – 2 – 1 12 Gujarati – Number of persons who can speak is 6. Only Gujarati 6 – 1 = 5 Thus the number of persons who can speak only one language is 3 + 12 + 5 = 20 Number of persons who can speak two languages = 2 Number of person who an speak all the languages = 1 Total number of persons = 23.
