Answer / chris
90 People read all 3.
500 people in town 50 dont read papers which means 450
people do.
285 from hindu 212 from indian express and 127 from times.
These total 624 people reading papers, however we know that
20 + 29 + 35 = 84 people read 2 people and will therefore
have been counted twice in the above 624 people.
So 624 - 84 = 540 people reading either one or two papers.
Since there are 450 people reading papers there are
540 - 450 = 90 people reading all 3 papers.

only one peper=236+148+72=456>500-50
