In the diagram below, the circle represents literate persons, the triangle represents doctors and the rectangle represents males.
Which part shows literate males who are doctors?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → E
A person who is literate, a doctor and a male must lie in the part that is inside all three figures at once: the circle, the triangle and the rectangle. Only E (shaded) is common to all three; G lies outside the rectangle, F outside the triangle and D outside the circle.
