1600 satellites were sent up by a country for several purposes. The purposes are
classified as broadcasting (B), communication (C), surveillance (S), and others (O). A satellite
can serve multiple purposes; however a satellite serving either B, or C, or S does not serve
O.
The following facts are known about the satellites:
1.The numbers of satellites
serving B, C, and S (though may be not exclusively) are in the ratio 2:1:1.
2.The number of
satellites serving all three of B, C, and S is 100.
3.The number of satellites exclusively
serving C is the same as the number of satellites exclusively serving S. This number is 30% of
the number of satellites exclusively serving B.
4.The number of satellites serving O is the
same as the number of satellites serving both C and S but not B.
What is the minimum possible number of satellites serving B exclusively?
- A.100
- B.200
