Answer / nethra

out of 4000 people:
Number of people eating meat:2000
Number of people eating egg:3000
Number of people eating Both egg and meat: 1500

So,people who eat meat can have egg so out of 3000 egg
eaters 2000 may be meat eaters:(3000-2000)=1000

out of 4000 people, 3000 are egg eaters(they cannot be pure
vegitarians) so 1000 are left

adding this 1000 with previously subtracted result:
1000+1000= 2000

out of 2000, 1500 are both egg and meat eaters:
2000-1500=500

Hence 500 is the correct answer
