请问下NN，为什么选择E，为什么排除CD？用韦恩图可以解决吗？

这个题目用不到韦恩图吧...当然也是可以画画..呵呵..

题目没有涉及A和HF占总人口的比例, 所以无法推出没有A或HF占total population的比例, C排除

设A有100人, 有HF的有10000人, 其中95人有A和HF, 在这种情况下, 满足题目全部条件, 但是无法退出D, 所以D不对

E..说老实话, 这个也不是很非常严密...但是既然A 是much less common than HF, 如果A有100, HF肯定不能是101,

就算HF有106, 100和106, 这都算不上是much less吧..在这种情况下, 就算所有的A都有HF, 100/106<95%,所以E肯定是对的

这个选项不严密的地方是没有定义什么是much less common, 不过...稍微用一点常识...还算是可以说的过去的...
