Final answer:

To find the number of employees in the set GnP', subtract the number of employees who receive both versions of the newsletter from the total number of employees who receive the newsletter in the mail.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of employees in the set GnP', we need to find the number of employees who get the company newsletter in the mail but not in their email. We can do this by subtracting the number of employees who receive both versions of the newsletter from the total number of employees who receive the newsletter in the mail. So, GnP' = G - (G ∩ P) = 85 - 23 = 62.
