Here's the Solution to this Question

$N(P\cap B'\cap W')=18$

$N(B\cap W)=29$

$N(B\cap W\cap P)=15$

$N(B\cap W\cap P')=N(B\cap W)-N(B\cap W\cap P)$

$=29-15=14$

$N(B\cap P)=40$

$N(B\cap P\cap W')=N(B\cap P)-N(B\cap P\cap W)$

$=40-15=25$

$N(W\cap P)=20$

$N(W\cap P\cap B')=N(W\cap P)-N(B\cap P\cap W)$

$20-15=5$

$N(B)=60$

$N(B\cap P'\cap W')=N(B)-N(B\cap W)-N(B\cap P)$

$+N(B\cap W\cap P)=60-29-40+15=6$

$N(B'\cap W' \cap P')=7$

$N(W\cap B'\cap P')=100-N(B'\cap W' \cap P')$

$-N(P\cap B'\cap W')-N(W\cap P\cap B')$

$=100-7-60-18-5=10$

$N(W\cap B'\cap P')=10$

$N(B\cup P)=N(B\cap W'\cap P')+N(P\cap B'\cap W')$

$+N(B\cap P)=6+18+40=64$
