30% of airline companies equip their planes with wireless internet access
70% of major airlines offer passengers free on-board snacks

We need to find the greatest percentage that offer both.

The number will be greatest when all the companies that offer wireless internet also offer free snacks.
Hence 30%

Option B

Is the ans b- 30% ??

As greatest has been asked, all 30% can fall into the 70% category but the reverse isn't true.

30% can be a sub set of 70%, but not other way round.

Therefore 30%.

The greatest possible would be lowest of the two individual values.
No matter how much you increase the pie, you cannot make it more than 30.
