in the faculty of reverse - engineering , 226 second year students study numeric methods , 450 second year students study automatic control of airborne vehicles and 134 second year students study them both . how many students are there in the faculty if the second year students are approximately 80 % of the total ?
"answer is b : 678 solution : total number of students studying both are 450 + 226 - 134 = 542 ( subtracting the 134 since they were included in the both the other numbers already ) . so 80 % of total is 542 , so 100 % is approx . 678 ."
add(226, 450)
