Question

How many countries in Asia were visited by at least one of Dheeraj, Samantha and Nitesh?

• 1. 10
• 2. 12
• 3. 5
• 4. 14

Answer 1

Correct Answer: 3

Analyze the table and additional facts to find the number of Asian countries visited by at least one of Dheeraj, Samantha, and Nitesh (DSN).

Visitor	Asia	Europe	ROW
Dheeraj	3	2	4
Samantha	1	3	3
Nitesh	2	1	3

1. Total countries visited by at least one DSN member = 32.
2. All three visited the USA (in ROW), leaving 31 non-USA countries.
3. Only Dheeraj and Nitesh visited China (in Asia, not visited by Samantha).
4. Only Dheeraj and Samantha visited France (in Europe, not visited by Nitesh).
5. Half of the countries visited by both Samantha and Nitesh are in Europe.

We categorize country visits outside the chart:

1. China is the only Asian country visited by both Dheeraj and Nitesh, but not Samantha.
2. Since Samantha visited only one Asian country, it must be different from China.
3. The total number of Asian countries visited includes:
   • The country visited uniquely by Samantha.
   • The Asian countries visited by Dheeraj, excluding China.
   • The Asian countries visited by Nitesh, excluding China and Samantha's single Asian visit.
   • China, visited by Dheeraj and Nitesh.

Considering Dheeraj visited 3, Samantha 1, and Nitesh 2 Asian countries:

• Samantha's single visit is unique.
• Dheeraj's 2 Asian visits, minus China, means 1 unique visit.
• Nitesh's 2 Asian visits, minus China, means 1 unique visit.

Therefore, the total number of unique Asian countries visited is 3.

Hence, the number of Asian countries visited by at least one DSN member is exactly 3, falling within the range [3,3].

Answer 2

Region	Dheeraj	Samantha	Nitesh
Asia	2	1	3
Europe	1	3	4
ROW	3	5	1

To find the number of European countries visited solely by Nitesh, we need to examine the table and the provided details.

The table shows Nitesh visited 4 countries in Europe. To isolate the countries visited only by Nitesh, we must consider visits made by Dheeraj or Samantha.

Additional information:

• France, a European country, was visited by Dheeraj and Samantha, but not Nitesh.
• Half of the countries visited by both Samantha and Nitesh are in Europe.

Let N represent the number of European countries visited only by Nitesh. Let S represent the number of European countries visited by both Samantha and Nitesh. The number of European countries visited by both is S/2.

Nitesh's total European visits: 4 countries.

Countries visited only by Nitesh (N) + Countries visited by both Samantha and Nitesh (S) = 4.

Since S/2 of these countries are in Europe, the equation is:

N + S = 4

Given that S/2 represents the European overlap, and this overlap contributes to Nitesh's total of 4, we can infer S = 2. Therefore,

N = 4 - 2 = 2

Consequently, 2 European countries were visited only by Nitesh. This result aligns with the expected range of (2, 2).

Answer 3

First, let's interpret the data to find the number of countries in the ROW visited by both Nitesh and Samantha. Based on the image and given facts:

1. A total of 32 countries were visited by Dheeraj, Samantha, or Nitesh.
2. The USA was the only country visited by all three.
3. We need to determine how many ROW countries were visited by both Nitesh and Samantha.
4. Half of the countries visited by both Samantha and Nitesh are in Europe.

We will focus on the ROW.

• Let's break this down logically:
• Define variables: Let x represent the number of ROW countries visited by both Nitesh and Samantha.
• We know that half of the countries visited by both Samantha and Nitesh are in Europe. This means the total number of countries visited by both is 2x. If half are in Europe, the other half must be in the ROW. Therefore, x represents this number.

Consequently, the number of ROW countries visited by both Nitesh and Samantha is 4.

Finally, let's verify that the answer falls within the expected range (4,4). It does.
