In a survey of 100 people, 60 like tea, 50 like coffee, and 30 like both. How many like neither?
- $10$
- $30$
- $20$
- $40$

Show answer and solution
Correct answer: B. A's sister is the reference person
'My father's only daughter' = the speaker (if A is a girl) or A's sister (if A is a boy).
B is the speaker's sister, or A herself if A is female.
