Answer:

math =  24

English = 16

Philosophy  = 8

Explanation:

Given that the college needs to make 8 less English courses available compared to math In each quarter

Let English  = x ,   math = x + 8    ( in each quarter )

philosophy demand by student in each quarter = 1/2*x = x/2

limit of all three courses in a classroom = 48

i.e.  x + (x+ 8 ) + x/2 = 48

    = 2x + x/2 = 48 - 8

    = 2x + x/2 = 40 ∴  5x / 2 = 40

hence : x = 80 / 5 = 16

The number of sections of each course that the college should make available in each quarter to meet demand

math = x + 8 = 16 + 8 = 24

English = x  = 16

Philosophy = x/2 = 16 / 2 = 8

Answer:

Math =  24

English = 16

Philosophy  = 8
