You have 120 kids in all and 23 signed up for trekking so automatically take 23 away from the 120
OpenStudy (bishoppatton):
so now there are 97
OpenStudy (civicsiscool44):
Ok
OpenStudy (dayakar):
total students = 120
no , of canoeing students = 72+13 = 85
no ,of trekking students =23

Ok your kind of confusing me
OpenStudy (dayakar):
remaining students = 120-85-23
=12
OpenStudy (civicsiscool44):
ok
OpenStudy (bishoppatton):
take away the 72 for canoeing. the 13 in the problem means nothing because it didnt ask how many slots for each activity was filled. it just asks for how many didn't do anything. so pretend you only have 26 kids trekking and 72 canoeing
OpenStudy (bishoppatton):
he is wrong
