A zoo has 6 Bengal white tigers and 6 Bengal royal tigers (12 total). Of these 12 tigers, 5 are males and 10 are either Bengal royal tigers or males (or both). Find the number of female Bengal white tigers.

  1. a
  2. b
  3. c
  4. d

Correct answer: a

Solution

Using set theory: the count of tigers that are royal OR male is 10. With 6 royal and 5 male, inclusion-exclusion gives 1 royal male tiger. The remaining 4 males are white tigers. White tigers total 6, so 6-4 = 2 are female white tigers.
