To help plan the number of meals to be prepared in a college cafeteria, a survey of 600 students was conducted and the following data were obtained: 175 students ate breakfast, 190 students ate lunch 275 students ate dinner, 68 students ate breakfast and lunch, 112 students ate breakfast and dinner, 90 students ate lunch and dinner and finally 32 students ate only breakfast and lunch (that is, they did not eat dinner).

Fill in the Venn diagram with the appropriate numbers (solve the Venn diagram), where B is the set of students who eat break- fast, L is the set of students who eat lunch and D is the set of students who eat dinner.
