Simple way to deal with such questions is by using the formula Total = SQ+GQ - Both + none (which is 0 in this question as each student appeared at least once) SQ = 50% (given)

We get 100% = 50% + GQ - Both + 0
GQ- Both = 50% (i.e. we got only GQ = 50%, we know exactly 1 of two quizzes is 70% so only SQ has to be 20%)

In an examination, each student appeared for at least one of the two quizzes namely, Science Quiz and General Knowledge Quiz. If 70% of the students appeared for exactly one of the two quizzes and 50% appeared for Science quiz, what percentage of the students appeared only in the science quiz?

A. 10%
B. 20%
C. 30%
D. 40%
E. 50%
