Solution

The correct option is B 80
Let N represent the people who play NFS and D represent the people who play Dota.

Given:
The no. of people who do not play NFS is n(N') = 50
Similarly, the no. of people who do not play Dota is n(D') = 40
And the no. of people who do not play any game is n(N' ∩ D') = 10

The set of people who play both the games is represented by N∩ D
The set of people who do not play both the games is represented by (N∩ D)'

Thus, the required number is n(N∩ D)'

We know from Demorgan's second law that
(A∩ B)' = A' ∪ B'
So, n(N∩ D)' = n(N' ∪ D')
n(N' ∪ D') = n(N') + n(D') – n(N' ∩ D')
n(N' ∪ D') = 50 + 40 – 10
= 80
