In a locality, the number of people who read The Hindu is 28 and the number of people who read The Times of India is 32. What is the maximum number of people in the locality who read the Times of India but not the Hindu?
Let the number of people who read both the newspapers be x. So, the number of people who read the Hindu but not the Times of India is 28 - x and the number of people who read the Times of India but not the Hindu is 32 - x.
So, total number of people who read at least one newspaper = 28-x + x + 32-x = 60-x.
But, there is no information about the number of people in the locality. So, we cannot determine the value of x.
So, with the information that is available to us, we cannot determine the number of people who read the Time of India but not the Hindu.
