Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
To solve this problem, we need to identify the region in the Venn diagram that satisfies all three given conditions simultaneously.
Analysis of the Venn Diagram
Circle: Represents "youths"
Triangle: Represents "persons who are in a job"
Rectangle: Represents "illiterate persons"
The question asks for illiterate youths who have a job. Mathematically, this means we are looking for the intersection of all three shapes: the region common to the circle, the triangle, and the rectangle.
Identifying the Region
Look at the diagram and find the area where the circle, triangle, and rectangle overlap.
The number 3 is located inside the boundary of the circle, inside the boundary of the triangle, and inside the boundary of the rectangle.
Therefore, the number 3 represents individuals who are illiterate, youths, and have a job.
