At jagwani Secondary school , thirth five students are taking economics, those who take mathematics are two-third of those who take economics and geography. Those who take economics only are twice of those who take geography only. All who take mathematics take economics or geography.Forty eight students take mathematics or economics or geography. Those who take economics and mathematics are one seventh as many as those who take economics. Those who take economics and geography are one quarter of those who take economics or geography or mathematics.

By using Venn diagram find the number of students who are taking

  1. At most two subjects
  2. Geography and mathematics but not economics
  3. Mathematics or or economics but not geography
  4. At least two subjects
