Correct Answer: 3

Solution and Explanation

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

VisitorAsiaEuropeROW
Dheeraj32Nbsp;4
Samantha133
Nitesh213
  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].

Europe134

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).

Question: 3

How many countries in the ROW were visited by both Nitesh and Samantha?

Updated On: Nov 24, 2025
Hide Solution

Correct Answer: 4

Solution and Explanation

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.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To find the number of European countries visited by exactly one of Dheeraj, Samantha, or Nitesh, we'll use the provided data and logical steps:

From the chart:

  • Dheeraj (D) visited 7 European countries.
  • Samantha (S) visited 8 European countries.
  • Nitesh (N) visited 6 European countries.

Additional information:

  • France is the only European country visited by both Dheeraj and Samantha, but not Nitesh.
  • Half of the European countries visited by both Samantha and Nitesh were 2 in total.

Let's represent the sets of countries visited in Europe:

  • D = Dheeraj-only + (D∩S) + (D∩N) + (D∩S∩N)
  • S = Samantha-only + (S∩D) + (S∩N) + (S∩D∩N)
  • N = Nitesh-only + (N∩D) + (N∩S) + (N∩D∩S)

We know:

  • (D∩S∩N) = 0 (No European country was visited by all three).
  • France is part of (D∩S), and since (D∩S∩N)=0, it's unique to D and S.
  • There are 2 European countries visited by both S and N (half of 4).

Nbsp;

Now, let's set up equations for the European countries:

  • 7 = Dheeraj-only + (countries visited by D and S only)
  • 8 = Samantha-only + (countries visited by S and D only) + (countries visited by S and N only)
  • 6 = Nitesh-only + (countries visited by N and S only)

Nbsp;

Substituting the known overlaps:

  • 7 = Dheeraj-only + 1
  • 8 = Samantha-only + 1 + 2
  • 6 = Nitesh-only + 2

Nbsp;

Solving for the "only" categories:

  • Dheeraj-only = 7 - 1 = 6
  • Samantha-only = 8 - 1 - 2 = 5
  • Nitesh-only = 6 - 2 = 4

Nbsp;

The total number of countries visited by exactly one person initially appears to be the sum of these "only" categories:

  • Total = Dheeraj-only + Samantha-only + Nitesh-only = 6 + 5 + 4 = 15

However, we must account for overlaps that were subtracted incorrectly from the initial totals. The overlap of France (D and S only) and the 2 countries (S and N only) mean we've double-counted in the initial "only" calculations when considering the total unique visits.

The number of countries visited by exactly one person is:

  • Total = (Dheeraj-only) + (Samantha-only) + (Nitesh-only) - (adjustments for overlaps)
  • Total = 15 - (1 for France + 2 for SN overlap) = 15 - 3 = 12

Nbsp;

Therefore, 12 European countries were visited by exactly one of the three individuals.
