Answer:

7. 25% of the merchants who purchase goods from Asia also purchase from Europe.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to say that:

A is the percentage of merchants who purchase goods from Asia.

B is the percentage of merchants who purchase goods from Europe.

We have that:

[tex]A = a + (A \cap B)[/tex]

In which a is the probability that a merchant purchases goods from Asia but not from Europe and [tex]A \cap B[/tex] is the probability that a merchant purchases goods from both Asia and Europe.

By the same logic, we have that:

[tex]B = b + (A \cap B)[/tex]

Which of following statement is individually sufficient to calculate what percent of the merchants in the group purchase goods from Europe but not form Asia?

We already have B.

Knowing [tex]A \cap B[/tex], that is, the percentage of those who purchase from both Asia and Europe, we can find b.

So the correct answer is:

7. 25% of the merchants who purchase goods from Asia also purchase from Europe.
