The regular mathematics faculty could not teach because of being sick. As a stop gap arrangement different visiting faculty taught different topics on 4 different days in a week. The scheduled time for class was 7:00 am with maximum permissible delay of 20 minutes. The monsoon made the city bus schedules erratic and therefore the classes started on different times on different days.

Mr. Singh didn't teach on Thursday. Calculus was taught in the class that started at 7:20 am. Mr. Chatterjee took the class on Wednesday, but he didn't teach probability. The class on Monday

From the given condition g = 10,

Number of students who like both Physics and Maths = 10 + f

Number of students who like both chemistry and Maths = 10 + e

From given condition 10 + f = 10 + e or e = f

Similarly from 3rd condition ¾ (10 + e) = 10 + d

Or 30 + 3e = 40 + 4d

Or

 Since 15 students like only chemistry hence b = 15

Number of students who like only chemistry is 40

Hence e + g + d + b = 40

or e + 10 + (3e – 10)/4 + 15 = 40

or (7e – 10)/4 = 15 or 7e = 70 or e = 10

Hence a = 5, c = 20, f = e = 10, d = 5

Hence the distribution is as follows

As per the observation of  class teacher actual numbers of students who like Physics in
