Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given there are Total of 59 members

22 students signup for Poetry club

27 students signup for history club

28 students signup for writing club

6 students signup for exactly two clubs

i.e. n(1)+n(2)+n(3)=6

if x i.e. n(4) is the no of students who signup for all three clubs then

[tex]n(total)=n(Poetry)+n(history)+n(writing)-\left ( n(1)+n(2)+n(3)\right )-2x[/tex]

59=22+27+28-6-2x

x=6

thus 6 students signup for three clubs
