Question

Out of 200 students; 35 students failed in MHT-CET, 40 in AIEEE and 40 in IIT entrance, 20 failed in MHT-CET and AIEEE, 17 in AIEEE and IIT entrance, 15 in MHT-CET and IIT entrance, and 5 failed in all three examinations. Find how many students : did not fail in any examination.

Sum

Solution

Let A = set of students who failed in MHT-CET
B = set of students who failed in AIEEE
C = set of students who failed in IIT entrance
X = set of all students
∴ n(X) = 200, n(A) = 35, n(B) = 40, n(C) = 40,
n(A ∩ B)= 20, n(B ∩ C) = 17, n(A ∩ C) = 15, n(A ∩ B ∩ C) = 5


n(A ∪ B ∪ C)
= n(A) + n(B) + n(C) – n(A ∩ B) – n(B ∩ C) – n(A ∩ C) + n(A ∩ B ∩ C)
= 35 + 40 + 40 - 20 - 17 – 15 + 5
= 68
∴ No. of students who did not fail in any exam
= n(X) – n(A ∪ B ∪ C)
= 200 – 68
= 132.
