    A Venn Diagram could be useful.

    Number with liberal arts and nursing but not computer engineering: 200 - 68 = 132

    Number with liberal arts and computer engineering but not nursing: 193 - 68 = 125

    Number with nursing and computer engineering but not liberal arts: 139 - 68 = 71

    Number with only liberal arts: 356 - 68 - 132 - 125 = 31

    Number with only computer engineering: 293 - 68 - 125 - 71 = 29

    Number with only nursing: 285 - 68 - 132 - 71 = 14

    a. 26 + 31 + 29 + 14 + 132 + 125 + 71 + 68 = 496

    b. 132

    c. 29

    d. 132 + 125 + 71 = 328

    e. 31 + 29 + 14 + 132 + 125 + 71 + 68 = 470
