In a group of people, 100 persons know Mizo, 50 persons know English and 30 know both. If each of the person knows either Mizo or English, how many persons are there in the group?
Answer: 120
This problem can be solved using the Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion for two sets.
1. Let set M represent the people who know Mizo and set E represent the people who know English.
2. Given data:
- n(M) = 100 (Number of persons who know Mizo)
- n(E) = 50 (Number of persons who know English)
- n(M ∩ E) = 30 (Number of persons who know both Mizo and English)
3. The question asks for the total number of persons in the group. Since every person knows at least one of the two languages, the total number of persons is the union of the two sets: n(M ∪ E).
4. The formula for the union of two sets is:
n(M ∪ E) = n(M) + n(E) - n(M ∩ E)
5. Substituting the values:
n(M ∪ E) = 100 + 50 - 30
n(M ∪ E) = 150 - 30
n(M ∪ E) = 120
Therefore, there are 120 persons in the group.
