Given:
Total number of students in section A is 55.
Total number of students in section B is 50.
Total number of students in section C is 45.
Total number of students in section D is 50.

Total number of students in the school is,
⇒ 55 + 50 + 45 + 50
⇒ 200
Students from section A or D and got second grade,
