Hi Sans8
I am not an expert but here is how I will try to deduce the last statement:
"At least 45% of Federland citizens under the age of 25 attended both a sporting event and a gallery or museum in 2015."
Let's assume there are 100 people within the 0- 25 age group,
No. of citizens who attended Galleries/ Museums, \(M_1\) = 70 (Given in the table)
No. of citizens who didn't attend Galleries/ Museums, \(M_2\) = 100 - 70 = 30
No. of citizens who attended Sporting events, \(S_1\) = 75 (Given in the table)
No. of citizens who didn't attend Sporting events, \(S_2\) = 100 - 75 = 25
There can be different cases of consideration, but let's take the extreme one i.e. "No one from \(M_2\) is in \(S_2\) and vice versa"
Therefore, no. of people who didn't attend both Galleries/ Museums and Sporting events = \(M_2\) + \(S_2\) = 30 + 25 = 55
So, no. of people who attended both events = 100 - 55 = 45
Hence, even in the extreme case, 45 citizens attended both a sporting event and a gallery or museum. (Can be reasonably inferred)

How do you know that "at least 45% of Federland citizens under the age of 25 attended both a sporting event and a gallery or museum in 2015" can be reasonably inferred?
