Problem 5. A class has 40 students, registered to play at least one of two
sports: football and badminton. There are 30 students registered football, 25
students registered badminton. How many registered both sports?
Solution
Let A be the set of students registered to play football.
Elements of the set A are n (A) = 30
Call B is the set of students registered to play badminton.
Elements of the set B are: n (B) = 25
The number of students registered to play both sports are
n(A B) = n(A) + n(B) – n(A B) = 15
