Question

In a lecture of 100 students, there are 29 women and 23 men. Out of these students, 4 are teachers and 24 are either men or teachers. Find the number of women teachers attending the lecture.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1 woman Teacher

Step-by-step explanation:

We proceed as follows;

Let W and M represent the set of women and men respectively , and T represent teachers

from the information given in the question we have

n(W)=29

n(M)=23

n(T)=4

n(M U T)=24

Mathematically;

n(MUT)=n(M)+n(T)-n(MnT)

24=23+4-n(Mn T)

n(MnT)=3

that is number of men teachers is 3,

so out of 4 teachers there are 3 men ,

and remaining 1 is the women teacher .

so the number of women teachers attending the lecture is 1
