Its E
We don't know how many men are there in both Drama and Music club.
15 + 10 = 25 is the max possible number of men if none of them are in both clubs.

Ok we had to think in terms of Venn diagrams, i was just thinking it of straight perrcentage question
Thus each question has some small trap everybody should be aware of, I guess

If we knew none of these men participated in both clubs at the same time, I could call C my answer but since this is not the case E is the answer.
