option (b)
The minimum value can be calculated using a short cut technique as given below.
Step 1 :Take the difference of all from 100( total number in question is 100)
100-100 = 0
100-80= 20
100-75= 25
100-70= 30
100-80= 20
∑ 95
Find the sum of all the differences = 95
Take the difference again from 100 = 100-95= 5
This is the minimum possible number of students preferring all 5 brands. Answer is option (b)
