✔ 最佳答案
Young = 3000 and Young Male = 1320.
Therefore, Young Female = 3000-1320 = 1680
Young Married = 1400 and Young Married Male = 600,
Therefore, Young Married Female = 1400 - 600 = 800
Young Female = 1680 and Young Married Female = 800
Therefore, Young Single Female = 1680-800 = 880

Solution: Let Y, F, S,M stand for young, female, single, male, respectively, and

let Ma stand for married. We have
card(Y \ F \ S) = card(Y \ F) − card(Y \ F \ Ma)
= card(Y) − card(Y \M)
−(card(Y \ Ma) − card(Y \ Ma \M))
= 3000 − 1320 − (1400 − 600)
= 880.
