Solution

The correct option is C 20
Let T, C and M be the sets of students who like tea, coffee and milk respectively. Let x number of students like all the three drinks.
It is given that the number of students who like both tea and coffee is 35. So, number of students who like only tea and coffee is (35-x).
Similarly, the number of students who like various drinks are written in the regions representing them in the venn diagram.
It is given that each student likes atleast one of the drinks.
n(TCM)=260, we have
(70+x)+(55+x)+(30+x)+(35x)+(30x)+(20x)+x=260.
240+x=260
x=20
Hence, 20 students like all the three drinks.
