53 freshman were interviewed about the classes they were taking this semester 24 said they were taking science 22 said they were taking math 17 said they were taking english 7 said they were taking both science and math 10 said they were taking both math and english 4 said they were taking both math and english 2 said they were taking all three classes

The questions are:

This is best answered using a Venn diagram. If you look at the separate areas, you see there are 7 areas.

The common area is the two students who takes the three classes.

4 said they were taking both math and English 

4 – 2 = 2 only take math & English

7 said they were taking both science and math

7 – 2 = 5 only take math and science

10 said they were taking both science and English

10 – 2 = 8 only take science and English

17 said they were taking English

17 – (2 + 8 + 2) = 5 take only English

22 said they were taking math

22 – (2 + 5 + 2) = 13 take math

24 said they were taking science

24 – (2 + 8 + 5) = 9 only take science

Adding them all up:

2 + 9 + 13 + 5 + 8 + 5 + 2 = 44

So, 44 students are taking the 3 courses

53 – 44 = 9 students are not taking any of the 3 courses

5 + 13 + 9 = 27 take only 1 of these courses

10/60

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 10 by 60 the answer is 0.166666 while if you divide or solve the other problems it equals 0.6
