    A 40 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 35 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 36 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 45 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Total families = 60. 40% have bikes = 24 families. 10% have cars = 6 families. 10% have both = 6 families. Families with either bikes or cars = 24+6−6=24. Families with neither bikes nor cars = 60−24=36. So, 36 families have neither bikes nor cars.
