A class of 32 students is organised in 33 teams every team consists of 3 students and there are no identical teams . show that there are two teams with exactly one common student

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by making up as many teams as we can with the 32 student. Given that each team is different, we can make 10 teams of 3 each. (we still have 23 more teams to make).

The last two people make a team of only 2. No matter which student from the 30 other students is picked, the team of two and the one the student is coming from will have one student in common. Though there are more borrowings that take place (many more), the results remain as stated. At least 2 teams will have 1 person in common.

The method is called the pigeon hole method.
