In the below figure, circle P represents hardworking people, circle Q represents intelligent people, circle R represents truthful people, and circle S represents honest people. Which region represents the people who are intelligent, honest and truthful but not hardworking?
- A.6
- B.7
- C.8
- D.11
▶ Answer & Explanation
Correct answer: C. 8
The question asks for individuals who are intelligent (circle Q), honest (circle S), and truthful (circle R), but explicitly not hardworking (outside of circle P). Region 8 is the intersection of circles Q, R, and S. Critically, it lies entirely outside of circle P, fulfilling the condition of not being hardworking. Therefore, region 8 accurately represents intelligent, honest, and truthful people who are not hardworking.
