Solution

The correct option is C

10


3 students moved out of Edustar in the beginning of August, and the total people tutoring at Edustar in August has increased to 36. So, atleast 9 students have shifted to Edustar atthe beginning of august. The one addition to Gurumath could have been from Edustar or Matonline.

CASE 1- If it had been from Matonline, then 9 students have switched to Edustar at the beginning of August. As none shifted to Edustar from Gurumath,the entire 9 should have shifted out of Matonline and one person who shifted to Gurumath should have also been from Matonline, so minimum=10

CASE 2- If the one addition to Gurumath had been from Edustar, then 4 students would have shifted out of Edustar and hence, 10 students should have shifted to Edustar at the beginning of august. As none shifted from Gurumath to Edustar, a minimum of 10 people should have shifted out of Matonline.
