Problem

Three kinds of cookies are sold at a store: dark chocolate \((D)\), raspberry with white chocolate \((R)\) and honeycomb \((H)\). Here is a table summarizing the number of people buying cookies this morning.

\(D\) \(R\) \(H\) \(D, R\) \(D,H\) \(R,H\) \(D,R,H\)
Number of people 16 16 10 7 5 3 1

The column with label \(D,H\), for example, means the the number of people who bought both dark chocolate and honeycomb cookies.

How many people bought cookies this morning?
