In an examination, 60 candidates passed integrated science or mathematics. If 15 passed both subjects and 9 more passed mathematics than science, find the number of candidates who passed in each subject. Also, calculate the probability that a student passed exactly one subject.
The probability for the high school graduates from a certain school to pass the subject Mathematics is 5/9 and for the subject Science is 7/9. If none of the examinees fails both subject and there are 6 examinees that pass both subjects, find the number of examinees from that school who took the examinations.
