How many more people indicated that they cycled to work compared with those who travelled by either bus or car?
A72
B35
C18
D19 ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) 19
Explanation
The difference is 19, so the answer is 19.
The number cycling to work is 72.
Those travelling by bus or car are 35 plus 18.
That is 53.
So the cyclists exceed them by 72 minus 53.
That is 19.
So the answer is 19.
