Answer»

Let B, C and H be the sets of students that plays Basketball, Cricket and Hockey

n(H) = 23, n(B) = 15, n(C) = 20

n(H intersection B) = 7, n(C intersection B) = 5, n(H intersection C) = 4

n(H union B union C) = 60 – 15 = 45

1. Hence, students that plays all games,

n(H intersection B intersection C) = n(H union B union C) – n(H) – n(B) – n(C) + n(H intersection B) + n(B intersection C) + n(C intersection H)

= 45 – 23 – 15 – 20 + 7 + 5 + 4 = 3

2. Who plays hockey not cricket

n(H) – n(H intersection C) = 23 – 4 = 19

3. Plays cricket and hockey not basketball

n(H intersection C) – n(H intersection C intersection B)

4 -3 = 1
