Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

28 said lunch was their favorite meal of the day.

18 women said their favorite meal of the day was lunch.

(28-18)=10 men will have lunch as their favorite meal.

33 said dinner was their favorite meal of the day.

19 men said their favorite meal of the day was dinner.

(33-19)=14 women will have favorite meal dinner.

There are total 36 women.

Total men=(76-36)=40

Women who like breakfast=(36-18-14)=4

Men who like breakfast=(40-10-19)=11

The table is shown below:

Men Women Total

Breakfast 11 4 15

Lunch 10 18 28

Dinner 19 14 33

Total 40 36 76
