One of my teachers gives his students essay finals. First, he tells us three numbers, A, B, and C. He gives us A essay questions to study before the test. He picks B essay questions to put on the test, and we must pick out C of them to answer. He tells us to study A-B+C of the given questions if we want to pass the final.
As a procrastinator, I only studied the night before. Luckily, some other students had taken the test a day early, and could tell me which of the questions the teacher had picked. Of course, the teacher would pick a different combination of questions to give to the rest of the students. After hearing which questions were given, I realized I needed to study N less questions than was necessary before!
Find N, generalizing to all possible A, B, and C.

Thank you for sharing this information. I learned this material in college as well, despite the fact that I virtually solely study in the profile direction right now. I decided to study nursing since I've always been interested in it. Even yet, there are sometimes difficulties, especially when
write my nursing essay. It's good that reliable sources may provide prompt support from reliable sources.
