Solution: Let A , B and C denote set of student who Apples , bananas and pears respectively

Then, n(A)=39;n(B)=50;n(C)=39;n(Acap B)=21;n(Bcap C)=18;n(Acap C)=19\ \Rightarrow n(Acup Bcup C)=n(A)+n(B)+n(C)-n(Acap B)-n(Bcap C)-n(Acap C)+n(Acap Bcap C)\ \Rightarrow 82=39+50+39-21-18-19+n(Acap Bcap C)\ \Rightarrow n(Acap Bcap C)=12
