Number of students who like none or only one of the foods = Total surveyed students - Number of students who like at least 2 foods
Total surveyed students = 75
Number of students who like at least 2 foods = P(Pizza ∩ Hoagies) + P(Hoagies ∩ Tacos) + P(Tacos ∩ Pizza) - 2P(Pizza ∩ Hoagies ∩ Tacos)
= 28 + 37 + 40 - 2*25 = 105 - 50 = 55
Therefore, Number of students who like none or only one of the foods = 75 - 55 = 20
Hence, Answer is D
Total surveyed students = 75
