Whwn two classes meet at the same hour means separate 40 and 60 students are there in both classes
That means total of 100 student

When two classes meet at different hours means some students can be common which in this case is 20. So total students will be 60 + 40 – 20 i.e. 80 ( Since these 20 students were counted twice)
