15 had only camping
a = 15
20 had only hiking trails
d = 20
35 had only picnicking
i = 35
185 had camping
 a+b+e+f = 185
15+b+e+f = 185
   b+e+f = 170
140 had camping and hiking trails
     b+f = 140

   b+e+f = 170
   b  +f = 140
     e   =  30
125 had camping and picnicking
     e+f = 125
    30+f = 125
       f =  95

     b+f = 140
    b+95 = 140
       b =  45
210 had hiking trails
   b+d+f+g = 210
45+20+95+g = 210
     160+g = 210
         g = 50
...300 parks...
       a+b+d+e+f+g+i+j = 300
15+45+20+30+95+50+35+j = 300  
                 290+j = 300
                     j =  10
              
           

Determine the number of parks that:
had at least one of these features

All but j, 300-10 = 290
had all three features
f=95
did not have any of these features
j=10
had exactly two of these features
b+e+g = 45+30+50 = 125
