Answer / guest
70 students are majoring in both, psychology & business
If 73% of the students are psychology majors, we know that
27% are not psychology majors. By the same reasoning, 38%
are not business majors, because 62% of the students do
major in business. So: 27 + 38 = 65
65% of the students are not majoring in both psychology &
business, so 35% are double majors, a total of 70 students.

This is an ambiguous question to which there is no unique solution. It could be that 100% of the 124 business students are also majoring in psychology, in which case the answer is 124. 70 is also a valid answer, for the reasons other people have discuseed, and any number in between.

A woman took a certain number of eggs to the market and sold some of them. The next day, through the industry of her hens, the number left over had been doubled, and she sold the same number as the previous day. On the third day the new remainder was tripled, and she sold the same number as before. On the fourth day the remainder was quadrupled, and her sales the same as before. On the fifth day what had been left over were quintupled, yet she sold exactly the same as on all the previous occasions and so disposed of her entire stock. What is the smallest number of eggs she could have taken to market the first day, and how many did she sell daily? Note that the answer is not zero.
