On a large college campus, the students are able to get free copies of the school newspaper, the local newspaper, and a national paper. Ninety percent of the students read at least one of thepapers, 40% read only the school newspaper, 20% read only the local paper, 5% read only thenational paper, and 2% read all three papers. Fifty percent read the school newspaper, and 5%read the school and national newspapers. A randomly selected student is asked whether he orshe reads the school, local, or national paper. Express each of the following events in setnotation and find the percentage of students represented by each. a The student does not read any paper. b. The student reads the local paper. c. The student reads exactly two papers. d. The student reads at least two papers.

a) The percentage that the student does not read any paper is  10%  

b) The percentage that the student reads the local paper is 40%

c) the percentage that the student reads exactly two papers is 23%

d) the percentage that the student reads at least two papers is 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

as illustrated in the Venn diagram below,

a)The student does not read any paper;

The percentage that the student does not read any paper will be;

100% - 90% = 10%

Therefore, The percentage that the student does not read any paper is  10%  

b) The percentage that the student reads the local paper;

from the Venn diagram below;

⇒ ( 20 + 15 + 3 + 2 )%    

= 40%

Therefore, The percentage that the student reads the local paper is 40%

c) The percentage that the student reads exactly two papers

⇒ ( 15 + 5 + 3 )%

= 23%

Therefore, the percentage that the student reads exactly two papers is 23%

d) The percentage that the student reads at least two papers;

⇒( 15 + 5 + 3 + 2 )%      

= 25%

Therefore, the percentage that the student reads at least two papers is 25%
