If each student participate in atleast one game, then find (I)the number of students in the college (II) the number of students who play only one game.​

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) the number of students in the college  = 480

(ii) the number of students who play only one game.​ = Need to find this

Step-by-step explanation:

Cricket = 240 = n(A)

Football = 180 = n(B)

Hockey = 164 = n(C)

both cricket and football = 42 = n(A∩B)

both football and hockey = 38 = n(B∩C)

both cricket and hockey = 40= n(A∩C)

all the three games = 16 = n(A∩B∩C)

-----------------------

n(AuBuC) = n(A)+n(B)+ n(C)-n(AnB)-n(Anc)-n(BnC)+n(AnBnC)

n(AuBuC) = 240 + 180 + 164 - 42 - 40 - 38 + 16 = 480
