Answer with explanation:

Number of Sophomores who are eating Outside the high school = 465

Number of sophomores ,out of 465 , who has taken, french ii(F) or chemistry i (C)or both(F∩C)=13

Number of sophomores ,out of 465 , who has taken, french ii but not chemistry i= 40

Number of sophomores ,out of 465 , who has taken, chemistry i but not french ii = 60

To find, Number of sophomores who has taken both french ii and chemistry i, that is n(F ∪ C).

→→ n(F ∪ C)=n(F)+n(C)-n(F∩C)

⇒n(F ∪ C)= 40 + 60 -13

=100 -13

=87

So, 87 sophomores are taking both french ii and chemistry i.
