among a group of students 50 played cricket 50 played hockey and 40 played volleyball. 15 played both cricket and hockey 20 played both hockey and volleyball 15 played cricket and volley ball and 10 played all three. if every student played at least 1 game find the no of students and how many students played only cricket, only hockey and only volley ball

Cricket only= 30

Volleyball only = 15

Hockey only = 25

Explanation:

Number of students that play cricket= n(C)

Number of students that play hockey= n(H)

Number of students that play volleyball = n(V)

From the question, we have that;

n(C) = 50, n(H) = 50, n(V) = 40

Number of students that play cricket and hockey= n(C∩H)

Number of students that play hockey and volleyball= n(H∩V)

Number of students that play cricket and volleyball = n(C∩V)

Number of students that play all three games= n(C∩H∩V)

From the question; we have,

n(C∩H) = 15

n(H∩V) = 20

n(C∩V) = 15

n(C∩H∩V) = 10

Therefore, number of students that play at least one game

n(CᴜHᴜV) = n(C) + n(H) + n(V) – n(C∩H) – n(H∩V) – n(C∩V) + n(C∩H∩V)

= 50 + 50 + 40 – 15 – 20 – 15 + 10

Thus, total number of students n(U)= 100.

Note;n(U)= the universal set

Let a = number of people who played cricket and volleyball only.

Let b = number of people who played cricket and hockey only.

Let c = number of people who played hockey and volleyball only.

Let d = number of people who played all three games.

This implies that,

d = n (CnHnV) = 10

n(CnV) = a + d = 15

n(CnH) = b + d = 15

n(HnV) = c + d = 20

Hence,

a = 15 – 10 = 5

b = 15 – 10 = 5

c = 20 – 10 = 10

Therefore;

For number of students that play cricket only;

n(C) – [a + b + d] = 50 – (5 + 5 + 10) = 30

For number of students that play hockey only

n(H) – [b + c + d] = 50 – ( 5 + 10 + 10) = 25

For number of students that play volleyball only

n(V) – [a + c + d] = 40 – (10 + 5 + 10) = 15
