Sets!

Among 100 applicants for a scientific job, it was discovered that ten had no qualification in either physics or chemistry.

83 had a physics qualification. 75 had a chemistry qualification.

How many applicants had qualifications in both physics and chemistry? How many in physics but not chemistry? How many in chemistry but not physics?

10 people have no qualification, wich leaves 90 applicants

90 - 75 ppl who have chemistry = 15 people who ONLY have physics qualification
83 - 15 = 68 people who have both
75 - 68 = 7 with only chemistry
