      B 24 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 22 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 18 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the number of people initially be 'n'.

      So, 55n - 53.5 × (n - 2) = 63 + 77

      Or, 55n - 53.5n + 107 = 140

      Or, 1.5n = 33

      Or, 'n' = 22

      Required number of people = 22 - 2 = 20
