The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Concept: To find the total number of people who can speak Telugu, we must add every region of the Venn diagram that contains Telugu.

Step 1:
Identify all Telugu-speaking groups. These are: \[ \text{Only Telugu}=35 \] \[ \text{Only Telugu and Kannada}=16 \] \[ \text{Only Telugu and English}=36 \] \[ \text{All three languages}=25 \]

Step 2:
Add all Telugu regions. \[ 35+16+36+25 \] \[ =51+36+25 \] \[ =87+25 \] \[ =112 \]

Step 3:
Write the answer. Therefore, the number of members who can speak Telugu is \[ \boxed{112}. \]

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Concept: The sum of all disjoint regions in a Venn diagram equals the total number of members.

Step 1:
Let the number speaking only English be \(x\). Given: \[ 35 \quad (\text{Only Telugu}) \] \[ 30 \quad (\text{Only Kannada}) \] \[ 16 \quad (\text{Only Telugu and Kannada}) \] \[ 36 \quad (\text{Only Telugu and English}) \] \[ 30 \quad (\text{Only Kannada and English}) \] \[ 25 \quad (\text{All three}) \] \[ x \quad (\text{Only English}) \]

Step 2:
Use total members = 200. \[ 35+30+16+36+30+25+x=200 \] \[ 172+x=200 \] \[ x=28 \]

Step 3:
Conclude. Hence the number of members speaking only English is \[ \boxed{28}. \]
