Answer 2

Given,

Total number of students in a curling team = 8

Total number of students in a badminton team = 12

Total number of students common to both the teams = 3

To find,

The total number of students on the two teams.

Solution,

We can simply solve this mathematical problem using the following process:

According to the question;

Total number of students on the two teams

= (total number of students in the curling team) + (total number of students in the badminton team) - (total number of students common to both the teams)

= 8 + 12 - 3

= 17

Hence, a total of 17 students are there on the two teams.
