Twenty-five students are registered for History, twenty-five students are registered for Math, and thirty-four students are registered for English. If only three students are registered for all three classes, how many students are registered for exactly two classes?

a. 13
b. 10

Subtracting people who registered for all 3,

(25-3) + (25-3) + (34-3) = 75.

People registered for all 3 = 3

Therefore only 2 = (75 + 3) - 68 = 10
