    A 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 22 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 24 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 26 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the number of people initially be 'n'.

    So, 66n - 64.8 ├Ч (n - 2) = 72 + 84

    Or, 66n - 64.8n + 129.6 = 156

    Or, 1.2n = 26.4

    Or, 'n' = 22

    Required number of people = 22 - 2 = 20
