    Solution

    For minimum number of invitations sent by Priya,
    All of PriyaтАЩs friends need to know each other and their friends should also be the same i.e.
    8 friends should be common to each of her friends.
    So, minimum number of invitations = 12 For maximum number of invitations sent by Priya,
    Priya has 8 friends and each of her friends has 12 friends.
    So, apart from Priya, each of the 8 friends has 11 friends each.
    As, PriyaтАЩs at least two friends know each other
    So, maximum number of invitation (When only two friends know each other)
    = (8 ├Ч 11 + 8) тАУ 2 = 94
    Required difference = 94 тИТ 12 = 82
