It's a very good problem.
Let 'x' pupil don't read any magazine and 'y' pupil read all 3 magazines
100-x= 39+36+45-14-11-5-2y
x=10+2y
We need to maximize the value of 'y' in order to maximize the value of x
y can be maximize when 11-y=0 or y=11
{If y were greater than 11, the pupil who read only magazine would be negative} You can clearly see that in the diagram below
The maximum number of pupils who do not like any of the magazines= 10+2*11=32
Let 'x' pupil don't read any magazine and 'y' pupil read all 3 magazines
100-x= 39+36+45-14-11-5-2y
x=10+2y
