Apply the formula for n(AUBUC)
You get 190.
200-190 = 10

Hi Bunuel,
I got the correct answer by chance. I did not get the meaning of the question correctly and I seem to be dissatisfied by the approach I followed.
Can you please point out mistake in my approach and/or suggest a better,more efficient way?
total candidates = 200.
So, A U B U C = 200.
100 = A ; 70= B; 140 = C.
40 = A n B (using n to denote intersection)
30 = B n C
60 = A n C
10 = A n B n C
Using AUBUC = A + B + C - {A n B + B n C + C n A} + A n B n C
I get 200 = 190. So I guess there is a gap of 10 somewhere. So let me go with 10.
