Question 788376: A boss took the poll results from the readership of three newspapers and threw them in the wastepaper basket. Vern was not happy and went to talk with Elsie.
"Why are they wrong?" Vern asked Elsie. He handed Elsie his notes. Of those surveyed, 196 read exactly two of the three papers, the bugle, the planet, and the recorder. 673 read only the recorder, while 926 of those who read a paper did not read the planet. 153 of the planet readers read at least one of the other two papers. Of those bugle readers who did not read the planet, there were 171 more who read the bugle alone than who read the recorder. 210 of the bugle readers read either the bugle alone or else both of the other papers.
After a couple of minutes of reading, elsie found the mistake. Show her work

I'm very stressed with this question and I've tried and tried but I'm getting worked up over it. Can someone please help me with this? This is grade 12 data management. This one is oddly very difficult from the other questions.
