Step-by-step explanation:
There are a minimum of 3 people in the group.
Given:
Each person has at most two A.
A> G > B > the number of people.
To Find:
The minimum number of people in the group.
Solution:
Let x be the total number of persons in the group.
Since have to find the minimum number of people, x>0.
We have been given that each person has at most two A.
So the total number of A can range from 0.
It is also given that A> G > B >x.
⇒ x < A
Now,
If A=0 ⇒ x=0, which is not possible.
If A=1 ⇒ G=0 ⇒ B=0 ⇒ x=0 which is not possible.
If A=2 ⇒ G=1 ⇒ B=0 ⇒ x=0 which is not possible.
If A=3⇒ G=2 ⇒ B=2 ⇒ x=0 which is not possible.
If A=4 ⇒ G=3 ⇒ B=2 ⇒ x=1 which is not possible as a person can have at most two A.
If A=5 ⇒ G=4 ⇒ B=3 ⇒ x=2 which is not possible as even if we assume that each person has taken two A, we would still be left with one A.
Now,
If A=6 ⇒ G=5 ⇒ B=4 ⇒ x=3
This is a valid situation as each person can be assumed to take two As.
Hence the least value of x=3.
∴ There are a minimum of 3 people in the group.
