40% of the Delhites read Times of India
50% of the Delhites read the Hindustan Times
10% of the Delhites read both newspapers
Formula used:
Percentage of people who read either newspaper = Percentage who read Times of India + Percentage who read Hindustan Times - Percentage who read both newspapers
Percentage of people who read neither newspaper = 100% - Percentage of people who read either newspaper
Calculation:
Percentage of people who read either newspaper = 40% + 50% - 10%
⇒ Percentage of people who read either newspaper = 80%
Percentage of people who read neither newspaper = 100% - 80%
⇒ Percentage of people who read neither newspaper = 20%
∴ The correct answer is option 3.
