2 stepsQuestion 11:
b) Find the:
(i) value of ;
(ii) number of people who speak one language only.
To solve this, we will use the information provided in the problem statement for Question 11, which was:
Total people = 50
Speak Yoruba (Y):
Speak Hausa (H):
Speak Igbo (I):
Speak all three languages (Y H I): 4
Speak exactly two languages: 14
Those who speak Igbo and Yoruba only (Y I only) are half of those who speak Yoruba and Hausa only (Y H only).
Those who speak Hausa and Igbo only (H I only) are 1 less than those who speak Yoruba and Hausa only (Y H only).
6 of them could not speak any of the languages.
