"if a student does not like the mountains" that means we are only interested in the population of students who do not like mountains. go to the table and find how many total students don't like mountains.

"what is the probability that student also does not like the beach?" that means we want students who do not like the beach *and* do not like the mountains. find this # from the table and divide by the total # of non-mountain people
