You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2 owned iPhone without M, 25 owned both=that gives 27 who owned iPhone
There are 14 others who owned M without phone, and that gives 39 who had a M.

11 did not own a M
14 owned M but not phone
neither was 9
one or the other was 16
Those are the 4 possibilities, and they add up to 50.
