Draw your Venn diagram. The first 4 numbers are easy to fill in.
Now let x be those who liked all three
Let F be those who liked only football
Let S be those who liked only swimming
40 liked swimming, and 16+8+x of those liked something else. So,
24+x+S = 40
Similarly,
20+x+F = 32
F+x+S = 19
Solve that and you have
F=3, S=7, x=9
