X students are attending summer courses at Harvard University. Y have registered for History, Z have registered for Science, and Q have registered for neither History nor Science.
Let X be 100
Y be 70
Z be 50
Q = 30
And R = no. Of students registered for both.
Both = no. Of students registered for history + no. Of students registered for science+ no. Of students registered for none - total
R = 70+50+30-100
R = 50
R = Y+Z+Q-X
Answer is D
