Answer :

Answer:

Juice is approximately 83,33% more popular than tea among the group of people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's break it down:

100 people drink juice but not tea

50 people drink tea but not juice

130 people drink neither tea nor juice

Total = Tea + Juice - Both + Neither

300 = (50 + x) + (100 + x) - x + 130

Simplifying the equation, we get:

300 = 150 + 2x + 130

2x = 20

x = 10

So, 10 people drink both tea and juice.

Now lets calculate the total number of people who drink tea and juice:

Tea: 50 (tea but not juice) + 10 (both) = 60

Juice: 100 (juice but not tea) + 10 (both) = 110

To find the percentage by which juice is more popular than tea:

((110 - 60) / 60) * 100%

= (50 / 60) * 100%

= 83.33%
