This is the concept of algebra,
The fraction of children was: 3/8
fraction of adults was 1-3/8=5/8
fraction of men 3/4*5/8=15/32
fraction of women=5/8-15/32=5/32
Given that there was 140 more children than men, the fraction representing this will be:
(3/8-5/32)
=7/32
thus the total number of people will be:
1/(7/32)*140
=32/7*140
=640
the total number of people was 640

garri49 [273]

Answer:

The number of students who took English and History, but not Math is 143.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the subject choices as follows:

<em>M</em> = a students was taking Math

<em>E</em> = a students was taking English

<em>H</em> = a students was taking History

The data provided is as follows:

N (M) = 257

N (E) = 282

N (H) = 323

n (M ∩ E) = 154

n (M ∩ H) = 171

n (E ∩ H) = 143

n (M ∩ E ∩ H) = 80

Consider the Venn diagram below.

From the provided data and the Venn diagram the value of the set E and H minus M is 143.

Thus, the number of students who took English and History, but not Math is 143.
