Expert Solution
Step 1

Let L denote the large marbles and S denote the small marbles.

Let G denote the green marbles and  W denote the white marbles.

The number of large marbles is, n(L) = 19

The number of small marbles is, n(S)=11

The total number of marbles is,

n(L)+n(S)=19+11=30

The number of large marbles are green is,

n(L and G) =5

Thus, the number of large marbles are white is the difference between the number of large marbles and the number of large marbles are green.

That is,

n(L and W ) = n(L)- n( L and G) =19-5=14

The number of small marbles are white is,

n(S and W)=3

Thus, the number of small marbles are green is the difference between the number of small marbles and the number of small marbles are white

That is,

n(  S and G)= n(S)-n( S And W)= 11-3=8

The total number  of green marbles is,

n(G)= n( L and G) +n( S and G)= 5+8=13

The total number of white marbles is,

n(W) =n( L and W) +n( S and W)=14+3=17
