Expert Answer
Let E, H and S denote the set of students who are studying English, Hindi and Sanskrit respectively.
Then, n (?) = 100
n (E) = 26
n (S) = 48
n (E ? S) = 8
n (S ? H) = 8
From the Venn-Diagram, it is clear that- n (E ? H ? S) = 3
The number of students who study English only = 18
Number of students who study no language = 24
? Number of students who study Hindi only = [100 (18 + 5 + 3 + 5 + 35)] 24
= 100 66 24
= 100 90
= 10
? Number of students who study Hindi
= 10 + 3 + 5
= 18
and Number of students who study English and Hindi = 3
3. Number of students who studies exactly one language = 18+35+10 = 63
4. All 3 languages n (E ? H ? S) = 3
5. at least 2 languages = n (E ? H) + n (E ? S) +n (H ? S) + n (E ? H ? S)
= 0+5+5+3 = 13
6. exactly 2 langauges = n (E ? H) + n (E ? S) +n (H ? S)
= 0+5+5 = 10
So, yes the question is correct, except that here n (E ? H) = 0, which is not something that is always intutive from a venn diagram.
