Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Given Data

The Venn diagram shows the following:

  • 55 students like Classical Music only.
  • 70 students like Jazz only.
  • 20 students like both Classical Music and Jazz.
  • 30 students do not like either Classical Music or Jazz.
Step 2: Calculate the Total Number of Students

To find the total number of students surveyed, sum up all the groups:

  • Students who like only Classical Music: 55
  • Students who like only Jazz: 70
  • Students who like both Classical Music and Jazz: 20
  • Students who do not like either: 30
Step 3: Add the Numbers

Add the numbers from each group: \[ 55 + 70 + 20 + 30 = 175 \]

Final Answer

The total number of students surveyed is 175 students.
