- Draw a Venn Diagram.
----
I'll help you get started.
Draw 3 intersecting circles; Label them S,B, and P.
Draw a rectangle around the 3 circles; Label it total = 135
----
Now work from the innermost part of the 3 intersections.
Put 30 where All three intersect
Put 40 where B and P intersect
Put 32 where S and P intersect
----
Keep filling out the pieces of S,B and P using the information
you are given above.
-----
Add up all the pieces making sure you don't add any of the numbers
more than once.
Subtract that number from 135 to get the number that don't like
S,B or P.
