First we calculate the number of people who chose internet in each group
1. GROUP 20-49
35% of 240: 10% of 240 is 24, so 30% is 72 and 35% is 84.
2. GROUP 50 AND OLDER
11% of 300 is straight up 33.
Sum A) the people who chose internet in both the groups and B) total people in survey.
Now calculate percent of people who chose internet.
(117/540)% = 21.something%
This can be calculated using the same method as mentioned for group A
Answer is (B)

We have two groups, one with a 35% average, one with an 11% average. If the groups were equal in size, then combined they would have a (35+11)/2 = 23% average. But the 11% group is very slightly bigger than the 35% group, so the overall average will be slightly closer to 11%. Only answer B makes much sense, though I suppose if you were undecided between A and B you might do a bit of calculation.
