Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Total students =9+6+8+10+7+5+15+4=64= 9 + 6 + 8 + 10 + 7 + 5 + 15 + 4 = 64.

  2. Passed Maths =9+10+7+15=41= 9 + 10 + 7 + 15 = 41.

  3. Failed Maths =64−41=23= 64 - 41 = 23. (Check: 6+8+5+4=236 + 8 + 5 + 4 = 23.)

Worth noting

19 forgets the 4 students outside every circle, who failed all three subjects, Maths included. 41 is the number who PASSED Maths.
