In a competition, a school awarded medals in different categiories.40 medals in sport 25 medals in danceand 212 medals in music, if the total of 55 students got medals and only 6 students got medals in the three categories ,how many students get medals in exactly two of these categories?

210

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Medals in sports = 40

Medals in dance = 25

Medals in music = 212

Total students that received medals = 55

Total students that received medals in all three categories = 6

Required:

How many students get medals in exactly two of these categories?

Take the following:

A = set of persons who got medals in sports.

B = set of persons who got medals in dance

C = set of persons who got medals in music.

Therefore,

n(A) = 40

n(B) = 25

n(C) = 212

n(A∪B∪C)= 55

n(A∩B∩C)= 6

To find how many students get medals in exactly two of these categories, we have:

n(A∩B) + n(B∩C) + n(A∩C) −3*n(A∩B∩C)

=n(A∩B) + n(B∩C) + n(A∩C) −3*6 …… (1)

n(A∪B∪C)=n(A)+n(B)+n(C)−n(A∩B)−n(B∩C)−n(A∩C)+n(A∩B∩C)

Thus, n(A∩B)+n(B∩C)+n(A∩C)=n(A)+n(B)+n(C)+n(A∩B∩C)−n(A∪B∪C)

Using equation 1:

=n(A)+n(B)+n(C)+n(A∩B∩C)−n(A∪B∪C)−18

Substitute values in the equation:

= 40 + 25 + 212 + 6 − 55 − 18

= 283 - 73

= 210

Number of students that get medals in exactly two of these categories are 210
