2/3 Dislike Lima Beans
3/5 of people who dislike lima beans dislike brussels sprouts
How many like brussels sprouts but dislike lima beans?

1. 120 students eat in the cafeteria

from this we can do this:

120(2/3) = 80 people who dislike lima beans
80(3/5) = 48 people who dislike both
80-48 = 32 people who like brussels sprouts, but dislike lima beans

SUFFICIENT

2. 40 of the students like lima beans

40 students = 1/3 of total (per stem) so total number of students = 120

now we're back where we were from the beginning. just redo what we did in statement 1.

SUFFICIENT

D it is
