In the given diagram, the square represents Technicians, the triangle represents Botanists, the circle represents Managers, and the pentagon represents Physicists. A research institute plans to recruit personnel for various positions based on the following criteria. (i) Managers who are also Botanists but not Technicians (ii) Technicians who are either Botanists or Physicists but not Managers. Find the number of people in the Venn diagram who are eligible according to the criteria.
56
Read the regions of the diagram: square only 14, square and triangle only 20, triangle only 19, square–triangle–circle 11, triangle and circle only 23, square and circle only 15, circle only 21, square and pentagon only 13, square–pentagon–circle 10, pentagon and circle only 16, pentagon only 12.
(i) Managers and Botanists but not Technicians: the region inside the circle and triangle but outside the square = 23.
(ii) Technicians who are Botanists or Physicists but not Managers: square and triangle outside the circle = 20, plus square and pentagon outside the circle = 13, giving 33.
Total eligible = 23 + 33 = 56.
Hence, the answer is 56.
