Consider,
H: People reading Hindu
D: People reading Deccan
T: People reading Times
^: Intersection
u: Union

Therefore,
People reading Hindu: H: 53
People reading Deccan: D: 46
People reading Times: T: 39
People reading Hindu and Deccan: H^D: 22
People reading Deccan and Times: D^T: 23
People reading Hindu and Times: H^T: x
People reading Hindu, Deccan and Times: H^D^T: 15

HuDuT = H + D + T - H^D - H^T - D^T + H^D^T
76 = 53 + 46 + 39 - 22 - x - 23 +15
x=32
