    Solution

    For minimum number of invitations sent by Dev,
    All of Dev’s friends need to know each other and their friends should also be the same i.e.
    20 friends should be common to each of his friends.
    So, minimum number of invitations = 40 For maximum number of invitations sent by Dev,
    Dev has 20 friends and each of his friends has 40 friends.
    So, apart from Dev, each of the 20 friends has 39 friends each.
    As, Dev’s at least two friends know each other
    So, maximum number of invitation (When only two friends know each other)
    = (20 × 39 + 20) – 2 = 798
    Required difference = 798 − 40 = 758
