Answer:
9 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of students taking only Physics and Chemistry
Number of students :
All 3 sciences = 9
Only physics = 12
Both Physics and Biology( without Chem ) = 24 -9 = 15
15+ 9 + 12+x = 45 , since Physics is compulsory
36 + x = 45
x = 45 - 36
x = 9
Hope it helps :)
