Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
We want people who are: Post-graduates (inside the circle),
Sub-inspectors (inside the square), and
Female → not men (outside the triangle).
So locate the region that is in the intersection of circle and square but outside the triangle. In the diagram that region is labelled 12. Hence the answer is 12.
