Answer:

Number of people = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of people in the group be 'x'.

It is given that:

  • \frac{1}{3}x are disciplined.
  • \sqrt{x} are punctual.
  • 3 are hardworking

Therefore,

\frac{1}{3}x +\sqrt{x} +3=x\\\sqrt{x} =\frac{2}{3}x-3

Square both sides:

x=\frac{4}{9}x^2-4x+9\\\frac{4}{9}x^2-5x+9=0\:\:\:(*9)\\4x^2-45x+81=0\\x=9\:\:\:or\:\:\:x=9/4

x=9/4 solution is not possible. Therefore, the number of people in the group 'x' = 9.
