Let p% of people watch a channel and q% of people watch another channel

        n(p\cap q) = x\% \text{ and }n(p\cup q) \leq 100

        So, n(p\cup q) \geq n(p) + n(q) - n(p\cap q)

            100 \geq 63 + 76 - x

                x \geq 39

            Now n(p)  = 63.

            n(p\cap q) \leq n(p)

            x \leq 63

            So, 39 \leq x \leq 63

Hence, the correct option is (C).
