I would say 75 is the ans.
thers are 50 ppl with families , since we are trying to find ppl with no families we will have to exclude them. . Now we are left with 150- 50 = 100 ppl
now assuming all the 75 ppl working have no family and assume all 75 take shower the max number to satisfy the required cond is 75

75 for me too. The max no. of people who are working = 150 -75 = 75. Only these 75 can have no families and are singing in the shower. So, 75.

Yep, I have 75 too.
It cant be higher because only 75 people are working and workers without family and like to sing is higher.

Alex
