Exploring Students' Knowledge of Programming Languages
How many students reported that they did not know any of the three programming languages?
Based on the survey results, how can we calculate the number of students who reported not knowing any of the programming languages?
Answer:
The number of students who reported that they did not know any of the three programming languages can be determined by subtracting the total number of students who reported knowing at least one language from the total number of students surveyed. To find the total number of students who know at least one language, we need to add the number of students who know C, the number of students who know Java, the number of students who know Python, subtract the number of students who know both C and Java, subtract the number of students who know both C and Python, subtract the number of students who know both Java and Python, and finally take into account the students who know all three languages.
Understanding the Calculation:
In order to determine the exact number of students who reported that they did not know any of the three programming languages, we would need the specific values for the variables mentioned above. However, based on the information given, we can conclude that there are students who know all three languages. Therefore, there must be some students who do not know any of the three languages.
By following the steps mentioned in the answer section, we can calculate the number of students who reported not knowing any of the programming languages. This method helps us understand the distribution of knowledge among the students surveyed.
