Answer:

UK-37623

Italy-28941

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of students who go to Italy be x and students in UK be y. Since 8682 more report to UK than Italy

Therefore, y=8682+x

Total students, x+y=66564 but y=x+8682 hence

X+(x+8682)=66564

2x=66564-8682=57882

x=57882/2=28941

y=28941+8682=37623

Therefore, those who go to UK are 37623 and Italy are 28941
