we do know that 35% is the total of both A+B
therefore, our 35% is the total value of the two sub percentage \(82+45.5 \approx 128\)
what percent of 128% (1.28) is 35%
translate
\(\frac{x}{100} 1.28= 0.35\)
\(X = 27.3\)
answer is E

If we consider the % as real numbers we do have 82 in category A and 46 in category B
The question asks to you that 128 (A+B= 82+46) is = to 35 of them that trade in BOTH categories. IF 35 trade in both the rest do not trade at all
x/100 of 128 =35
x=3500/128
x=27.3
I hope now is more clear
