In a survey, it was found that 80% of those surveyed owned a car while 60% of those surveyed owned a mobile phone. If 55% owned both a car and a mobile phone, what percent of those surveyed owned a car or a mobile phone or both?

Correct Answer: 85%

Explanation:

Percentage of car owners = 80%
Percentage of mobile phone owners = 60%
Percentage of people having both car and mobile phone = 55%
Percentage of people having only car = 80 - 55 = 25%
Percentage of people having only mobile phone = 60 - 55 = 5%
Percentage of people having a car or a mobile phone or both = 55% + 25% + 5% = 85%
