1,200 - 150 = 1,050
900 - 150 = 750
1,050 + 750 = 1,800

There are 1,800 total unique names.

Answer: There are 1800 unique names from both the lists.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

there are two lists :

In First list, number of names = 1200

In Second list, number of names = 900

According to question , we have also given that

there are 150 names that appear on both lists,

So,

Number of unique names in the first list is given by


1200-150=1050

Number of unique names in the second list is given by


900-150=750

Therefore, total number of unique names is given by


1050+750=1800

Hence, there are 1800 unique names from both the lists.
