I hope it will help you!!!!!!
➠Solution:-
Let C, P and B represents the subjects Chemistry, Physics and Biology respectively.
⇒Number of students enrolled in Chemistry :
n(C) = 60
⇒Number of students enrolled in Physics :
n(P) = 40
⇒Number of students enrolled in Biology :
n(B) = 30
⇒No.of students enrolled in Chemistry and Physics :
n(CnP) = 15
⇒No.of students enrolled in Physics and Biology :
n(PnB) = 10
⇒No. of students enrolled in Biology and Chemistry :
n(BnC) = 5
⇒No one enrolled in all the three. So, we have
n(CnPnB) = 0
The above information can be put in a venn diagram as shown below.
From, the above venn diagram, number of students enrolled in at least one of the subjects :
= 40 + 15 + 15 + 15 + 5 + 10 + 0
= 100
So, the number of students enrolled in at least one of the subjects is 100.
