ATQ,
mn - 110 = (n - 2)(m - 1)
β mn - 110 = mn - n - 2m + 2
β n + 2m = 112 -------- (i)
mn - 168 = (n - 3)(m - 2)
β mn - 168 = mn - 2n - 3m + 6
β 2n + 3m = 174 -------- (ii)
Multiply (i) by 2: 2n + 4m = 224
Subtract (ii):
2n + 4m - 2n - 3m = 224 - 174
β m = 50
β n = 112 - 2Γ50 = 12
Hence, answer is 12 people
